Nothing was happening with my pre-order from June.
As soon as I used the link you posted and ordered again, I received a shipping date from amazon!
A couple of other online retailers are already out of stock! This surprised me because the broadcast on CNN had been a huge hit, so I thought that retailers would have stocked up on the DVD.
I am glad you received your copy already.
Does the DVD have any bonus material listed on the back of the DVD case?
arlw, perhaps Glen's return home was a financial decision? Kim Campbell mentions in the ArkansasOnline article that private health insurance / Medicare for persons who were self-employed only covers the costs of medicine:
"Glen has private health insurance and has Medicare, but when you're dealing with dementia, really all it covers is your medicine. It does not cover any kind of in-home care or memory support communities or anything like that. It's all out-of-pocket. It's very expensive. If you're a veteran or if you qualify for Medicaid, then you can get some help. With everybody else, it's out of pocket because insurance will not cover it." -- KC
Kim has mentioned this year, too, that Glen is physically healthy. He could live for many more years requiring long-term care 24/7 either at home or in a memory care community.
Long-care health insurance is expensive, too. I checked into the cost a couple of years ago; the monthly premium was almost as expensive as my monthly mortgage payment!
Or, maybe Glen wasn't receiving the care he needed at the care facility where he had been staying, so perhaps he is home until there is a better option for him. Some of the better assisted living and care communities in my city have wait lists that are years long!
