Thoughts from Gail about her Mom:
“For my Mom, although we tried to keep quite a bit of her stuff for her, she felt we (my siblings and I) got rid of too much…even though she knows she couldn’t keep everything. She knows intellectually that she couldn’t continue in her huge home alone, for both maintaining it and financial reasons. She knows it was either live with me or assisted living. She was not managing her diabetes and other health issues. So the loss of her independence, possessions and the realizations of her own mortality were big issues for her.”
