[quote=Anonymous]My parents moved to my mother’s hometown to “downsize” and ended up buying a 2-story house that’s 30% bigger than the 1-story house they sold. 😬 It worked fine for about 5 years until my dad’s health took a turn. He had pneumonia in January and hasn’t been downstairs since. It’s a lot for my mom. My MIL’s house is much more practical for aging in place, although even so my husband thinks she would be happier if she moved to a smaller condo so she didn’t have to worry about the yard, snow removal, etc. Plus, the extra bedrooms are just more rooms she can fill up with stuff that we will have to deal with someday (shopping is how she handles her anxiety).[/quote]
