How do you tell...

the person who raised you that they cannot live in the old homestead anymore?

It appears that my Mom continues to be confused post stroke, and is still seeing and hearing things that aren't there. This, coupled with impulse control issues, makes it a no brainer for an assisted living facility. Better still, all family members are in agreement. Praise God!

Unfortunately, the question is... who will bell the cat? Who tells Mom? She's working very hard in therapy with the understanding that she'll be home in two weeks. Honestly, are we lying to her by omission? I think so. I'm very afraid that she will be heartbroken to learn that isn't the case.

So... if you're inclined to pray... keep it going!

Be Blessed!
