[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm sure she's reacting to you [b]trying to guilt her into more visits. It's manipulative. [/b]

And you really do need to keep moving. Walking is one of the best things you can do for osteopenia. I live near several 87+ year olds and they walk every day, weather permitting.

I know it's hard to not feel sad. But just sitting there watching the clock tick on your health makes it worse. Be proactive and help yourself.[/quote]

Telling a family member the situation and asking for a visit is not manipulative.[/quote]

The way OP wrote it, it sounds manipulative. I probably won't be here much longer and I want to see you more while I'm still here. That is basically what she is saying. That is manipulative. [/quote]

Yeah, telling a family member that you're probably going to die soon and need more visits because of that at 77 is manipulative all right. Especially when nothing dramatic has happened health-wise, like a terminal cancer diagnosis. [/quote]

My mother has been saying that since she was like in her 50s, so much so that when she died in her early 70s it was like what?! 
Ironically she stopped saying her usual line a few years before that [/quote]
