[quote=Anonymous]My mother is 101 and I am an only child. The good news about that is that I don’t have to compromise with siblings about the finances and I consult my own conscience. I visit my mother twice a week and she comes here on weekends for a meal. She can still climb the few steps in front of the house but her memory and hearing are failing. My best advice is to not plan too much. Be there for your parents as best you can. Do not strive for martyrdom. It’s a long slog not a race. I am grateful to have her, but it is painful to watch the decline. [/quote]
