[quote=Anonymous]There are several options in between living alone and going to a nursing home. Independent living places allow the independence but have much more of a safety net as well as socialization. Assisted living is a higher level of care. Maybe if you talk about these options it would be better than jumping right to nursing home, which are indeed depressing places. Also 70 is quite young to be thinking about this unless she has major health issues. My parent just moved to independent living at 85. Your mother may change her mind in another 10-15 years.[/quote]
