[quote=Anonymous]Your mom not being quite ready for such a huge change is understandable. You could go through her home and place all of the paperwork items in sealed plastic bins that are easy to store, for sifting through later (or not). Memorabilia could be treated similarly. This will make it easier for later selling, and from a privacy standpoint, remaining items would be less personal, though of course, not necessarily less sentimental. That said, who has POA? Does your mom need to sell the home to cover her healthcare costs? If not, the push to do this does seem a bit premature. Either way, a discussion needs to be had where your mom is given the courtesy of giving her opinion on how she wants to proceed, and if moving/selling, on what cherished items she'd like to keep. Does you mom still have a car? If so, why not start there?[/quote]
