[quote=Anonymous]OP,

All the elderly parents I know wish the same. Most of them understand that their children have busy lives and can't always be visiting them. Your daughter visits you a lot already! Please don't make her feel guilty like this, because it's only causing her pain. She KNOWS you don't have much time left. She's not going to quit her job, etc, to live with you for a few years. You understand this, right?

What YOU need to do is get your affairs in order. Surely you understand that you cannot complain you don't have much time, guilt your child, AND ALSO not lift a finger to write a will, write your medical directives, and start decluttering your home? So why don't you expend this energy you have into doing something useful with the time you have: declutter and write a will, so your estate doesn't spend years in probate. These are the things adult children wished their elderly parents would do. I wish MY parents could do that! Luckily they don't complain they don't see us enough, unlike you. We live abroad and were not able to see them this year, even though my father is sick. So consider how lucky you are.
