My mom is 95, living in her own home, and has a aid during the week. I live in NJ, she in NY. Every other week I travel and stay the weekend with her. I have been doing this for 10 years. My hubby just found out his job ends in June. We will have to move. However, this does not change my visiting my mom every other weekend. The one time I told her I might move I was told " you are abandoning the family" which really translate I am abandoning her. Her words can cut like a knife. Any suggestions on telling her I will be moving?
I think I would tell her on your last visit before the move. tell her you will see her in two weeks but on the first hubby starts a new job or is retiring and we will be living in-----------------. will call you as soon as we get there and my cell will be the same so you can call if you need anything.
You are going to get harassed whatever you do so leave the news till the last minute.
