Elder Care And The Sandwich Families
Your daughter feels like she has two Mothers. You feel like you are back in the sixth grade. Your husband is weary from the overtime he works. You are one of the growing number of sandwich families in America. Mom or Dad is now living with your family while you're still raising your children.
More and more of us are still growing our family when Mom or Dad moves in to our house. Many couples remained after our 'small group' meeting at church to discuss the changes this situation presents. Everyone completely agreed that it completely alters the home environment.
One of the basic needs that seniors have is transportation. Many have lost their driving privileges. There is a loss of freedom but one grandparent described it as losing a degree of dignity. So we started a free rides program. Volunteers using their own vehicles and fuel to transport seniors to and from appointments.
One major box store made a donation of hdtv plasma tvs to use for a cash raffle prize. They gave a kitchenaid food processor to the cooking staff and threw in a delonghi space heater for the basement storage room. We openly discussed shared concerns about having a grandparent in the house full time.
One couple shared the dynamic of having a child and a parent that used diapers. There was lots of talk about the 'reality check'. Critical grandmothers are not always appreciated by today's teen. Conflicts can arise from comments about clothes, makeup, and music. One parent talked about the 'trigger' words list in their home.
Now it is trips to soccer games and to the pharmacy to fill prescriptions. One menu is planned for family mealtime and another menu tailored to the grandparent. Special beverages and ingredients become important too.
Our rides program is helping families. For a family that has to load Mom into the car with her oxygen bottle, day bag, and wheelchair to take her to dialysis three times a week it is respite. Volunteers now transport her twice a week and her daughter picks her up four hours later. Rides are now being offered for shopping, senior center outings, and other activities.
Everyone who volunteers knows that they deliver more than hot food. They are providing the nourishment of human contact. The volunteer may be the only companionship that person experiences all week. Our 'small group' is now reaching out to other circles like ours to combine our elder care efforts. We have a formed a vision team to look ahead to identify upcoming needs and consider solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions...
Freezer too cold, fridge too warm...just ice blockage?
Hi, I have a KitchenAid SideXSide fridge, (about 4 years old) model KSRG25FK, that suddenly started keeping the freezer too cold and the fridge side too warm. A temperature check of -20 on the freezer side and in the 50's in the fridge confirmed this. The freezer baffle control would not move, and I found it was frozen, along with the air vent in the freezer was mostly (but not totally) blocked with ice, too. I did remove all of the contents, and am defrosting it totally now. Do you think this ice was my problem, or do I more likely have a bad freezer thermistor? Also, one thing that does not make sense to me, that maybe you can clarify: The control (it's a sliding lever) labeled "freezer" is just a lever that controls the air baffle, while the adjuster (another sliding lever), actually has some type of electronic control box. It seems to me it should be just the opposite, but hey, that's why I asking for help! Thanks, Randy
Answer:
The reason you have ice forming is your drain line is clogged. Water that melts from your freezer slowly slides down the plastic hose, the calcium in the water after time will form a blockage. Get rid of the ice with hot water, then pour water directly down the hole (under the ice that formed). If you pull the refrigerator out, you'll see a hose underneath, you want to see water draining there. Once you have the line open, pour a little bleach or some kind of drain cleaner to clear the gunk. Once you get rid of the ice forming in your freeezer, the cooling system will work properly and keep both the freezer, and the refrigerator a normal temp. This will happen again in the years to come, just repeat....
