[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 364009"] I'm so sorry. My own mother died at age 49 and I did not have the opportunity to see her grow old. But, I was able to be with my in laws during their old age. I was particularly close to my father in law. Making the decision to place them in a facility was really, really hard. What helped, is that we visited a lot. Is this place close enough to make that do-able? We went so often, the employees often commented on it. We were able to pick up items they needed and to even see what little things the staff needed that might be of help. Just an idea...the frequent visits helped a lot and it was the best arrangement for everyone. In time...it will get better...but the transition is often rocky. Hang in there and (hugs). [/QUOTE]
