Hadn't thought about this thread until I saw Shaun's thread just now, so thought an update was in order.
I ended up moving Mom into a local assisted living facility here in April of last year (2023). To her credit she has adapted and despite her age of 101, is still doing relatively good.
I have Hospice involved to provide medical and hygiene care. She also gets that from the facility staff as needed. I also have a caregiver who stops in once or twice a week to help with Mom's feminine stuff like hair, nails, clothing....and then I visit also every week.
The cost is $5,200/month.
It's a 6 bed converted house in a golf course subdivision about 10 minutes away.
I took over all Mom's financial affairs years ago as her POA. She has all her documents in place which I had reviewed again last year with a new estate attorney, so at least that stuff is done.
Look forward to updates from fellow forum members on what their situation is and what they are doing.....
