[quote=Anonymous]I would not do a 2 year lease, especially at her age. I’d move her to a more accessible place while she is healthy. It stinks to have to make decisions during a crisis and the fact is that in her 90s it’s more reasonable to expect she will have mobility issues than not. My mother was suddenly unable to walk due to cancer and by the time we could even get the house modified she had passed. She spent the last few months lamenting the fact she didn’t move to a one level condo/apartment sooner. I help my elderly aunt out and even at 76 she is always having unforeseen health emergencies. She’s currently in a nursing home hoping to be discharged back to her retirement community where her home is thankfully accessible with no steps. My 83 year old dad is very spry and active living in a 2 story home that he refuses to move from. I worry what will happen if he has something pop up. [/quote]
