[quote=Anonymous]I don't have any advice. Maybe try to help her pack up and strategically pack that things she needs and then pack the junk in different boxes. Then only move the one set of boxes and dump the others. I have resigned myself to the fact that it won't happen until after my mom passes. I have visions of dumpsters rolling up to her front door and dumping it all. I try to take as much stuff as she will let me each time I visit. She will give me things to 'sell' from time to time. I just take the stuff home and my husband dumps it in the trash. Like all of my Cabbage Patch Kids. They were worthless, but she saw dollar signs. My friend and I went over and threw out dozens of trash bags of stuff, while she was on vacation. I told her ahead of time that I was going to do it and she barely noticed anything when she got back.
