Obviously you want to respect your mothers wish to age in plac= e but at some point you will need to make a decision regarding care needs vs= budget etc. We can support her throughout the aging process at home. If she= needs more care we can scale up. Avoiding a fall is the most important thin= g. So here's what I recommend: Christina will visit tomorrow and touch base w= ith Angela to find out what she thinks. We will review internally and reach o= ut to you for a more detailed discussing tomorrow. >>=20 >> Best, >> Tim >>=20 >>> On Mon, Aug 26, 2019 at 2:54 PM Randy Bowen wr= ote: >>> Hey Tim! >>>=20 >>> Hope all is well. I=E2=80=99m writing to ask you opinion, or more specif= ically, Angela=E2=80=99s assessment of my mom=E2=80=99s ability to continue l= iving alone. I understand this might be outside your sphere but in case it i= sn=E2=80=99t, I thought I=E2=80=99d touch base.=20 >>>=20 >>> As you may expect, with a person of her age, she has ups and downs vis a= vis her abilities and confidence. Her wish is to stay living where she is f= or the rest of her days of course. Most days this seems reasonable provided h= er condition remains relatively the same. Other days she doesn=E2=80=99t see= m so sure however. My brothers and I do not wish to, nor would we, force her= into a new living arrangement unless absolutely necessary. The trick it see= ms is to control the situation as much as we can, to make the decision we al= l want to make rather than have it forced upon her and us. Each day brings i= t=E2=80=99s own challenges and risk which we all accept, so if she falls and= breaks something, then it=E2=80=99s a different ballgame of course.=20 >>>=20 >>> In the meantime, would it be out of line to get Angela=E2=80=99s opinion= on the matter? Mom has really been enjoying her help and company and trusts= her. I=E2=80=99ve been following the reports she=E2=80=99s been leaving and= they=E2=80=99re pretty consistent and positive. I=E2=80=99m just hoping for= a little more insight if it=E2=80=99s avail
