How can we force each individual's difficult, disabled life in a scheduled box?
 

We have two live ins.  We schedule when we can.  We can't schedule seizures and bad days.  "Sorry Johnny, we're not going out to eat today.  You should have told me 4 days ago you weren't going to have a seizure or any health problems today.  You needed to let me know 4 days ago you wanted an impromptu lunch at the diner, because you were feeling good for once.  Oh, you want to go shopping?  No can do, we decided to dust today!" How can we force each person's life, their very difficult lives, into a scheduled box?
