Moved my mother in law into assisted living facility near us two years ago. The final decision maker was when she lost sight in one eye . She was 88 years old and living alone in her home . Was still driving up to that point .
Sold her house and moved her to a facility 10 minutes away from us . Now 90 years old her short term memory is very poor . The facility is basically split in half . One half assisted living the other half memory care .
I can see the time coming when a move to the memory care side will be needed . It is sad but if you live long enough it is going to be part of life . This woman always treated me with respect and love . You couldn't ask for a better MIL .
