[QUOTE="buddy, post: 470539, member: 12886"] That sounds very much like what my grandma just lived in (after her sr. living..she had a really cute one in OHIO with in home care...she had her own porch and everything, heck I'd like that place.) But last year she moved to assisted living and it was tricky at first but she made friends and loved the talks with some of the staff there. Then, when she got very ill and had trouble cognitively, she just was able to move to another wing. That was when she was actually ready to go though...the assisted living was the main part even when mildly ill. I hope it works out for you all. Re: your hubby being upset that you are anxious....I wonder if you are going to be the whipping post for a while???....Not just all the house stuff, but he is going to SEE up close and personal that his mom is really getting old and of course it is never easy to prepare for the end. Even in the best of circumstances that can make people scared, crabby and fight. I hope once she is there, he will follow thru and she will accept that it is just not a good situation for her to live with you. I am sorry this is so hard. You are doing the best thing for your family. [/QUOTE]
