[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there other adult children and family in the area? A kid living 3,000 miles away from their aging widow mom makes me so sad. She prob only saw her a handful of times a year[/quote]

She was close with her mom. This was not her fault. Elderly parents are free agents. Check the Eldercare board and you will see many of us have elders who want to age in place. Check yourself.[/quote]

You’re projecting because you have a guilty conscience [/quote]

Do you understand you cannot force your elderly parent to move when they are of sound mind. Look into the legality before you post. [/quote]

Of sound mind but can't walk 50 yds alone?[/quote]

Why is this difficult? Many elderly people have physical challenges but are still mentally sound.

Also to the people implying Savannah Guthrie shouldn’t have allowed her mom to live there, that’s where Savannah is from. It is her mother’s home and she has other family and friends in the area. It’s not like Savannah is the only family and abandoned her. [/quote]

I meant she may be cognitively sound, but if she can't walk well and needs assistance to be mobile, then perhaps live-in help or assisted living facility is appropriate.  We sometimes have to make difficult decisions regarding elderly parent care. [/quote]

My mom lives in Tucson and certainly can’t walk 50 yards unassisted.  She has a walker for longer walks like that.  My siblings live within a mile or two.  She also has an Apple Watch that alerts us if she falls and an Apple home thing she can use to alert us if she falls or needs help.  She definitely doesn’t want to move.  She comes to visit out here but not in the winter.   You’re ridiculous to suggest someone needs to go into a home just because they can’t walk half a football field unassisted! [/quote]

I stated OR live-in help. If you think not needed for a person in their 80s with very limited mobility, fine with me. [/quote]
