[quote=Anonymous]NO ONE wants to move into (any version of) a nursing home. They are all depressing, and your parent's last stop before death (which they know). So don't expect her to be happy or express gratitude. You are doing the right thing, but she is facing a very difficult life passage, and you should be there for her (as you have been). She can't be the model mom right now. My brother was just like you. Told us that we were "enabling" our mom by trying to keep her at home (which was her wish). NOW, his wife has dementia, and he will do anything to keep her home rather than in a care facility. [/quote]
