You must be dreaming. As soon as we get a maid, they leave. Ever since my dad got this disease, his personality has really changed. He's gotten much more emotional. It's OK when he's normal, but when the disease acts up it's like he's eaten some gun powder. Maids are afraid to see him! What can we do-- we can't quit our jobs and stay home to care for him. When we lock him into the home by himself, you get situations like we had yesterday. This doesn't work, that doesn't work. I'm at the end of my rope.
