[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That when parents stop visiting, sometimes they just aren't up to it anymore. They are older. They are weaker. They, themselves, probably think there will be another trip to visit. But then there's not. They had plenty of money. I wish I had pressured or wish they had realized, that if they had just paid for me to fly to them, more often, I would have. Just me. Doesn't have to be spouse & kids every time.[/quote] Thanks for posting this. This is where I am at with my parents over the last year or two. [/quote] I think I may have just hit this and it came sooner than expected. We were all even looking forward to another visit "in the fall" and then came the diagnosis. Parkinson's. Now my dad no longer drives and who knows if he'll ever get on a plane again. I think we will probably just be visiting them from now on. Didn't see it coming.[/quote]
