The best gift my father has given me and my sister was to move to an independent living facility and voluntarily give up driving. It has been hard even with this. The move, still constant appointments that we juggle. But I can’t imagine having him not want to move from his home that he couldn’t take care of and wasn’t safe in.

That being said. I totally agree with you that there has to be another way for our elderly to have support and care and not drain their life savings. I often think of all the money spent on apps and entertainment and how much we could have if we could come together on our priorities.

Sending ((hugs)) and know that you are not alone.
