[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is absolutely your right to speak up and be blunt about it! This happened to my friend with her in-laws. Her MIL got a lab puppy in her 80s! Nothing her kids could say dissuaded her. And then MIL couldn't walk her. MIL went into a nursing home, dog ended up at my friend's house. Luckily the dog is healthy and pleasant. [/quote] I wonder if some elderly people are still mostly with it mentally, but have just enough cognitive decline to overestimate their capabilities and underestimate the likelihood of a significant decline in the near future.[/quote] It's not necessarily "cognitive decline" just optimism and denial. Look at all the former high school beauties in their 50s with saggy batwings and armpit fat and midriff bulge wearing tank tops snd spandex.[/quote]
