I was talking with a friend I use to be super close with about my mom's sudden decline and need to find an AL. She responded with how she would never put her mom in an Al and take care of her. She went on about how much she loves her mom etc… I was taken aback by this. She knows I’m extremely close with my own mother and adore her. I’m married, have a grown child and live an hr away from my mom. This friend has never been married, no children and lives 10 mts from her mom.
How would you respond to this?
Never say never.
