[quote=Anonymous]My mom did this. She declined over about a year and a half after going from home to AL. She was declining physically and cognitively prior to leaving her home for AL, probably over about 5 years. It’s awful becoming the parent to your parent. Is your mom continent? Mine needed Depends prior to her move, but couldn’t handle it, was in denial, more demented than I realized. The AL place could not keep their promises for increasing care needs (and the costs escalated), so I moved her to a private care home with excellent care, higher staff ratio. She passed a few months ago and suffered several strokes that left her unable to communicate. Sorry going through this, OP. [/quote]
