Today was a day to celebrate mothers. I rejoice in knowing that my mother is in a place where she is no longer suffering. I know she would not want me to sit around and be sad all day.
I woke this morning and lay in bed for a little while remembering my mother and all she meant to my family and I. My Mother died on November 3, 2011. The family went through Thanksgiving, Christmas and several birthdays.Today was her day, and the emptiness was hard to bear.
 She was the one that stood up for all of us, even if we were wrong. Now it is our turn to stand up for her. I will never forget the frustration we have experienced in dealing with the NCDHHS, NC Medical Board, The coroner, Dr Poston and Pardee Hospital. We have tried to go through all the proper channels to get something done. At this point it appears that this kind of thing just goes on all the time. No one seems to be alarmed that these people dont follow the rules. The NCDHHS is supposed to be there to represent the people. It is obvious to me in this situation, that SanStone is above the authority of NCDHHS. It could have something to do with one of the members of the comittee in charge(Gerald P Cox), owns nursing homes himself, and is affilliated with the largest healthcare system in the Carolinas. This is just another example of how Gov. Bev Perdue operates. She certainly wont get any votes from my family.
