OMG!! Peekerfoo, talk about divine intervention! I know you must have been awestruck, that you found your mother wandering around like that! I worked in nursing homes for 20 years or so, and we used to have people who would wander off occasionally. One guy was found wandering down the highway. It's a small town, so they were always found quickly. I know you are very relieved that it was you who saw her walking down that road. How far was she from the nursing home when you found her? So thankful for you and for her!
So, Johnny's sister has not been back here since she registered? How odd is that? Is it possible she could have lost her password and can't sign in?
The question about whether Johnny received some kind of SSI or disability is a good one, I wish we had the answer. Perhaps his checks are automatically deposited. I think this is how SS works these days, they don't send out paper checks anymore, so if that is the case, his checks would be going to his bank account every month. It would be interesting to know if any money has been withdrawn since he went missing. I'm certainly not accusing anyone, just thinking out loud. If they had to use some of his money to go back to MB to look for him, that would be perfectly understandable.
