Oh and DH had to take his mom to the ER because in the past year his dad who has had bad knees/hips for a long time has become wheelchair bound. He had his hip replaced at the beginning of the year and his having his knee done soon. He seems to think that he will be more mobile after that but who knows.
This is rough. My mom had her knees replaced years ago and it really did help, same for my aunt and her hip. They will most likely want him up and moving to help.
So glad you were able to convince (kidnap? LOL) grandma to move closer. If she wasn't happy at the other assisted living place, thankfully she is nearby now. That will be a big relief to have her within a reasonable driving distance. Plus you'll be able to pop in and visit at any time. Hang in there!!
