[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I pay a lot of my mom’s bills. Her heating oil, cable, internet. I send her checks to help pay for special things like getting stairs fixed, a new furnace, etc. I send her checks to help with buying Christmas gifts and the like. She lives on Social Security, and mostly manages on that, but I help as much as I can. [/quote] Sounds like she would be better off in a small rental that doesn’t require so much maintenance.[/quote] No, she wouldn’t. She loves her house, where she has lived for 53 years. She loves gardening, sitting on her porch, her neighbors, walking to the library. Having the family come for Christmas and fill up all the beds. She has no desire to move to an apt, and I am happy to help her stay in the home she. Loves. [/quote]
