[quote=Anonymous]My mom is in assisted living with dementia but not memory care. I was able to have her move without fully lying but the truth is she kept forgetting we’d discussed it and then the conversation would be hard again so at one point I just stopped talking about it until the day of. I did refer to her new place as a senior apartment versus assisted living. I wasn’t told not to visit, but I was told not to linger too long or come during meal times, etc. like come for 45 minutes between breakfast and lunch or lunch and dinner, and then go. Let her settle into the routine there.[/quote]
