[quote=Anonymous]I like PP's idea of asking some experts. She may be externalizing her feelings of loss and frustration onto the facility, in which case no situation will make her happy. Also, the retirement community residents are not necessarily going to hang out with her. She is 80 and needs a walker + private care: the fact is, she is old. She can still play cards and enjoy music but a lot of the "young" retirees are hiking or bowling together which she cannot do. Watching them and being lonely there may be worse. I don't mean to dump on your idea, which is a lovely one. I've had a lot of impossible elderly relatives, is all. And I would be a little worried about finding a slot in AL if she needs to go back.
