[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Turn on the hallmark channel and go in her room to bring her meals. That's it.[/quote] I wish I could do this! She'd be like "Uncle Pete" in that movie Soul Food - he just stayed in his room all day watching TV and they'd bring him his meals. But my mom won't stay in her room all the time. At first we had her in our guest room upstairs until her bedroom furniture was brought down from NJ. Then we set up her own private room and full bath in the basement. Much bigger than the guest room and plenty of room for all her furniture, clothes, TV, even her curio cabinet with her beloved knick-knacks. One minute she says she likes her room, the next minute she says why did you put me in the basement, it's cold, I don't want to be here all day by myself, you can't tell me what to do, etc. And then she says she was just fine by herself in NJ. So we can't win! We've taken to calling her the Babadook because she lives in the basement. Lots of gallows humor in our household lately.[/quote]
