Good story.Mary. I've been there. We helped our mom live in her home until she died at 95. It was funny, silly, sad and demented at times and gave my sister and I no end of conversations about whether we were doing the right thing. The time we opened a little used cabinet and a host of moths flew out, the fights over “perfectly good” food we had thrown out cause it had expired. Hang in there.
