[quote=Anonymous]To those saying 68 is young: it can and should be young. We have some relatives that age who are fit and healthy and seeing the world. We also have a couple of relatives this same age who are now seeming old. In these cases, there tend to be some health problems but also increasing signs of anxiety and/or depression. Sounds like there are some similarities to your mom. You may need to accept the fact that she just can't be the mom/grandmother you'd like her to be--but most likely it's all about her issues, not you. Don't take it personally. I think it's entirely fair for you to reject any guilt trips, and you may want to consider urging her to seeks some help about her travel-related anxiety. Would her partner be a resource for you in this, if you mentioned to him that you were concerned that your mom is shutting out the world prematurely? [/quote]
