[quote=Anonymous]we went down this road three years ago. My parents too insisted on staying in their home forever. But getting them out of their home into an apartment (CCRC - not that i would recommend that) was a game changer. You say they are with it mentally but in my experience elderly people will hide their deficiencies. Unfortunately it took my mom falling and breaking her hip that got them to move. Are they driving? Yeeks there is that concern too. The issue is people their age thought they would just drop dead or decline rapidly like their parents. Not true today! So staying indefinitely in their suburban home with many stairs is just not realistic.[/quote]
