Sure I may be a 40+ Mum of 2, but when I head to my Mum's; I have one job and that is to prepare the pepper base. And yes, My mum will cook everything whilst not letting me do anything and simultaneously complaining that I don't do anything *sighs*! #adulting #elderlyparents
The problem with being an only child to elderly parents is that one day you will have to see (at least one of) them nekkid.
Today was that day for me.

The GP has visited my mum and prescribed antibiotics for her red, hugely swollen leg. I am concerned about the fact that there is no POA in place for my Dad if he becomes ill or loses mental capacity . He’s 90 but is being obstructive about it which isn’t like him at all. #elderlyparents
Choosing the best #recliningbed for #elderlyparents is one of the most thoughtful decisions you can make for their #comfort and #health. As people age, getting good sleep becomes harder, and mobility issues make ordinary beds uncomfortable. #ReclinersIndia

For anyone who has elderly parents, when they fall make them go get checked up. My dad had a severe fall last Friday and he was too stubborn to go to the doctors. He woke up yesterday unable to walk. Today we learn that he has a ruptured lower vertebrae. #elderlyparents

I'm dying!😆💀🤦♀️My Boomer parents are both texting me without the other knowing. Dad is sending me money and mom is coming up without telling him. She's waiting for him to leave for deer camp. After 55 years, you'd think they know when each other is up to something. #ElderlyParents #Boomers #lolded
My father is failing. My mother died in 2022. I’m single and the primary caregiver for my father. My brother and nephews help as much as they are able. Some days are really tough and it’s hard to do this part of life alone. This half sandwich phase can fuck off soon. #caregiving

Trying to teach my Mom that when she calls she shouldn't start off with "I have a problem" and then ask a trivial question! Leaves dropping off plants was today's call. When in your 80's & 90's and all is well, for goodness sake, begin with Good morning and it is a nice day. #ElderlyParents

Where are my caregivers for elderly parents?
Where are you on that journey?
We have one living with us and one in a nursing home. We drive 8 hours every two weeks to visit my wonderful MIL.
