Good luck.
Yep, I would imagine having that realization is not easy. My mom is very independent. She divorced my dad when I was 5 and raised my brother and me by herself. She worked hard and also managed even when times were tough. She likely should have moved into the assisted living place a few years ago, but she just couldn't believe things had come to that and assumed she would get better.

But now things are good and she is very happy. Hopefully she will love living there.
