I just spent the last four hours helping my great-grandma move into a "retirement" home. Apparently, according to my mother, it's like a nursing home but less of a hospital...? Nursing homes, retirement homes, assisted living centers...I may not know all of the differences, but I do feel like I have some sort of grasp on the similarities. I know that it is a necessary step in some people's lives, but I am going to do everything I can to make sure that it is not the only option in my last years. Much as I may try to be optimistic, when I see someone who is moving into one of these facilities, I can't help but wonder if they are sad about the fact that this will be the last place that they spend their time...reading, watching television, and hoping for visitors.
Have a happy Wednesday night, bloggers...I believe my night will be containing some board games, wish me luck.
