@normawatkins Let me first say that I love how this discussion has evolved. Your very first post that started this discussion made me angry and so very sad. I'm still sad for you and the entire situation is very difficult with so many unknowns. You have made it very clear that you are not trying to change your son at this point and his decision but rather accept the reality for what is and adjust to that.

You've received so much support and good suggestions here. And then your following posts indicate that you are opening up to possibilities you hadn't considered. I'm the same age as your son and I know people half my age who cannot do this. You are an inspiration and I hope that if I reach the age of 92 I will do so with the grace that you have.

Will you continue to post here and let me know how you are feeling?

I had no expectation of the many helpful and supportive responses received, or how they would help me to come to terms with my situation and realize I have more options than I ever imagined. I am feeling confident that I can deal with what's ahead. and that's a good place to be no matter what that might be.
