[quote=Anonymous]My mom just turned 80. Her health is OK but not great, she has had multiple falls in the last year, I don’t anticipate things getting easier for her. She is also a very difficult person who has burned most bridges in her life and is not getting easier with age. She moved herself into a very nice continuum-of-care type facility last year after being on the waitlist for five years. She has two old dogs who are absolutely terrible and completely untrained that they let her bring, but the dogs have been such a problem that it seems she may be about to receive an ultimatum that she either has to move out or get rid of the dogs. Getting rid of the dogs is the obvious answer, but she refuses, they are her most successful relationship right now. I can’t imagine her moving back into a situation where she’s independent she just doesn’t physically seem able to do that and certainly moving her out of her current home would be a nightmare. Neither my sister or I will take her dogs, they are that horrible. I don’t really have a question here just wondering if anybody has dealt with a situation like this and how it played out. My mom and I are not close, but I don’t want her to be homeless either. It feels like such a sad situation and I feel lost on what to do if anything.[/quote]
