i just got back from visiting my mom in an assisted living. (nice one). initially decision for her to go there caused a family rift w/my sis and I (later i was proved wrong) i was fighting to keep her in her home and have an aid pop in to bathe/feed her couple hours a day. but my sister is saying, "what if she falls during the night and no one is there?" she would need someone 24⁄7 care and financially that wasn't option.
i can't eat there... slumped over, they shuffle around, etc. i must be an awful person but i think if it got time to leave my home for medical reasons, it's time to pull out the stashed xanex stock.
Are you either:
1) carry me out of my home in a pine box or
2) i'll want the socialization, laundry done, 3 squares, bridge, bingo, basketweaving, assisted living is for me in my elderly years.
