My Mother is Moving Into our Home
One of the saddest things that I have had to witness in my life is my parents getting old. You never really think about it when you are a child, but at some point, your parents need you to take care of them. I guess I just took it for granted since my grandparents passed away while I was young, but I still find myself at this point: taking care of my mom.
So, we have had to do some modifications to our home so that she will be able to get around easier. We have added a stair lift so that she can make it up the stairs easier, and a liftchair in the living room so that she will have an easier time to sit and watch television.
We are moving her into Jessica’s room since she is married now, and shouldn’t need her room again. It was really sad to take her stuff off of the wall, but it was necessary so that my mother can have her own space.
She will be moving in here in a week or so, so we have a little bit of time to get everything perfect for her arrival. I am just thankful that she gets along with my wife, and hopefully that will mean that there will be no fighting.
