[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your SIL are living in total denial, and the feelings they're concerned about are their own, and not their mother's well-being. I'd argue that that's the betrayal they should be worrying about, not whether appropriate memory care is betraying their mother. How are they going to feel if she hurts herself badly because her home is no longer the safest place for her? I've found with my spouse, though, that I can have opinions about what's going on on his side but that generally it's not my circus and not my monkeys.[/quote] They aren't in denial at all. They are dong the bulk of the work so OP gets no opinion. We had to put my MIL in a facility and it was horrible and she was terrible neglected and at times possibly abused. If I had another option, I would have done it. I visited as often as I could and was very active with her.[/quote]
