After living in independent living, my 94 year old mother agreed she needed assisted living. I moved her fifteen miles from her city to be closer to me. It's been less than two weeks and she is screaming at me "why did you move me here". She has no hearing, refuses to use hearing aids, now loosing most of her sight to macular degeneration she is miserable and taking this unhappiness out on me. I have a sister who lives fifteen hundred miles away and only visits twice in the winter. I have thick skin, the problem is how do we make her understand this was the only option we had, she agreed and now there is no turning back?
It's been less than 2 weeks. When I move into a new place it takes me at least that long just to figure out where to put my shampoo bottle in the shower! Give her time to adjust.
