[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother, 88 (great health) is now living with us (1 year now), we are planning on going on vacation abroad for spring break and we are not taking her. I feel bad but we cannot afford another room and expense. She says she’s okay with this but I can tell she wishes she could go. We will be traveling like this off and on, if she is healthy I shouldn't feel bad right? Asian background here. What do you do with elderly parent living with you?[/quote] My mom doesn't like to travel at all while MIL does. We don't see a need to drag my mom or oblige MIL every time. As long ad they are mobile and can call 911, they can stay home. A neighbor or friend can check on them and you too can call them for safety update. Make sure to stock up on food and medication. Put a ring camera on front door and one outside her room. Bring her something nice from the place you go to.[/quote]
