Her wheels still make her mobile. Now a days they are attached more often to a walker than a bike but she is still moving.
At last an independent living apartment has opened up for my mother to try living with other old folks. She really was the the prettiest and the brightest one there when we visited the St. Patrick Day Party yesterday.
She needs that social interaction and we feel better knowing there is immediate assistance in case of a medical emergency. She says that she has been talking to herself and knows that she isn't going to get any younger. It is all in how you look at things. Her apartment will be cleaned, meals provided and laundry facilities available. There are daily activities and celebrations for those that want them.
It looks like a pretty good deal when you're ready to give up your own home. That's the hard part. We're leaving the house in tact in case it doesn't work out. She can be pretty critical so she could get pissed off at someone and get kicked out!
