(23,637 posts)41. How totally stressful and sad for both you and your Mom.
Growing old is no walk in the park. It's tough on both the parents and kids. I lost both my parents before there were any real problems with their mobility or mental abilities. But my Mom passed at way too early an age of 62. I can't imagine the anxiety and stress you're going through. I hope the days ahead are more charitable to you and your Mom.

It's not as bad now, since residents of LTC facilities should be vaccinated by now.
