You are so right Elaine, but it's really difficult for Uzzi to know what to do for the best at the moment - I met her mum last week and I could see the problems, say no more . . . . . |

Oh bless you Uzzie. I think you must find your mum a place in England where she will have people she can talk to. To uproot her I think would not work and if you were on 24hr call with her it could affect your marriage and your life. Do your very best for her but here not in Spain. This is only my slant on things but think very carefully before uprooting her. <3 <3 <3. Elaine. |

First of all how old is your mum? Is she in good health? Would she cope with the travel to spain, the different lifestyle, would the medical assistance be there, the other sort of back up you would need that is available over here? If she did come to you in an annexe could you afford for help to go in so you wouldn't have the 24 hr call problem? Do you have any relatives/friends over here who could help out if your mum stayed in her own home or if she went into residential care? Would it be viable for her to go into assisted housing/sheltered accomodation over here with visits from friends/relatives and you come over regularly to see her? Maybe over here she would get the benefits that are not available in spain. |

I am finding this decision making for Mum so hard, the decision to agree for her to come to Spain isn't /hasn't been the easiest. I am trying so hard to do the best for her aswell as the best for me, OH and my mutts. |
