I have already lived 33 years in our home and I can't even imagine living somewhere else. BUT...I will be ready to go when I can no longer be trusted to take care of myself. So, I feel like your mom is the same. The LAST thing we want to do is worry our kids...When my dad moved into a home several years ago...I felt so much better that it made HIM feel better.<BR/>I'll bet your mom will make new friends there and end up just loving it....<BR/>happiness to all of you, bjbjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04432398383127199206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7899901805999032914.post-51300652078025216272008-05-16T04:24:00.000-07:002008-05-16T04:24:00.000-07:00I'm glad your mother is doing fine.

It is always so hard to help them make that move to a retirement home, but it sounds like your mom will handle it well! And being as social as she seems to be will help a lot! She will probably have a lot more fun surrounded by people and activities.<BR/><BR/>Take care, God bless.<BR/>melissaMelissa @ The Inspired Roomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09711494549892860307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7899901805999032914.post-15759655959870593732008-05-12T07:18:00.000-07:002008-05-12T07:18:00.000-07:00Oh Judy, I'm so sorry for the scare you and your f...Oh Judy, I'm so sorry for the scare you and your family had!
