You have a strange obsession with her physical appearance and it's almost as though you think that is part of what makes her superior to these old people. I remember your other posts and you have a very extreme way of writing. Your mom is so vibrant and everyone around her is hunched and old. You are mom's savior and brothers are evil. You also seem to want us to just agree with you.[/quote]

I agree. I hope you are a troll OP, because I'd hate for this story to be actually true.

The two of you must really be awful looking. I’m sorry.  :cry: [/quote]

No, they “mustn’t” be, but your blatantly telegraphed insecurity is unattractive as hell, trust and believe.

OP, are you sure your mother will be able to get an independent living spot even if you plan to hire FT caregivers for her? A lot of CCRCs assess potential residents by how they are at the time of admission; if your mom can't manage ADLs, she's not getting into IL. If she had moved in sooner, she might be able to stay by hiring assistants because a lot of places won't force you to move even if you should.

Your mother should also be prepared to be unpopular despite her looks and grooming. You may think she's vivacious. People whose job it is to be nice to her may be nice to her. But if she shares your perspective on what makes someone worthwhile, I think this might not go well for her. [/quote]
