Have been thinking about that too: To move closer to my kids or stay where I am (Am a pretty healthy 84 year old female).
Pretty much decided to stay. Will be in my home, that has been remodeled for older people, as long as I can drive, then think I will move to an independent or dependent living facility here in town.
My grown kids don’t get along, but I will suggest for them to promise me to visit every month, taking turns. They live a 4 hour drive away, are busy with work and pets.
There are positives and negatives of course. Even made myself a list of likes and dislikes in both places, for example: I really like their area, but don’t like their drama.
Have many more positives here, my friends, my church, my doctors, etc.
So far so good.
As I said before, am praying to be able to make the right decisions whenever it becomes necessary. 🙏
