[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old is your MIL? [/quote] Early seventies. [/quote] She could easily live for 10-15 more years, requiring financial assistance each year in order to maintain her independence. You need to discuss with DH what you are able to do each year going forward and communicate this to SIL. I would not be surprised if SIL is trying to keep MIL in the house to avoid having to take her into her own house.[/quote] Oh good heavens no. Plan ahead. Everyone in my family lives forever. My maternal grandfather: 105. My maternal grandmother 97. Paternal grandmother 97. Greatgrandmother 105. There would be more longevity statistics but the wars took out the men. We had to pay for 30 years in assisted living for a relative who broke her hip exercising in her mid-70s. Plan for more than 10-15 years.[/quote]
