Thanks, Shawn. She resisted bringing in aides a few months ago after a
previous fall, but this time she acknowledges that she needs help. Let's
hope she stays in that mindset.

 Good luck with that! It seems to be the trend in my family that it's
the men who end up with mental issues as the end approaches while the
women either die suddenly (heart attack, motor vehicle crash for ex.)
or die VERY old but fully cognizant till the end.
 Sometimes my daughter (who lives with me) thinks I'm losing it though
it tends to be that I'm not always paying attention to her when she
thinks I am and my hearing is not what it was. These days I often say
things to reinforce for her that I am actually listening closely to
her (for instance if she's talking about the dog, I would mention him
by name)
 

Thanks! Mom is 98, so anything could happen, but she is in remarkably good health for her age. I hope she passed that on to me.
