[quote=Anonymous]Both my mother and MIL are in their early 90s, getting frail, and do NOT want to leave their homes. At this point, its their choice. My mother lives with my brother and its been working. MIL lives alone and SIL is close and takes care of her. As long as its manageable, why would they be anywhere else? Do the best you can, OP, but let her live however she wants. Even if it means she's alone when she falls, has a stroke, or dies. My guess is that at some point, she won't be able to sustain this lifestyle and will need hospital care. At that point, you'll have professionals helping you. In the meantime, talk to her doctor and your local senior services group for help. Good luck, this isn't easy. [/quote]
