Welcome to CareNotes. In this special section we will feature a reader's letter and provide an opportunity for an interactive exchange that will help find some answers and possible solutions to concerns.
Independent Mom
My mother is 89 years old and lives in a senior living apartment complex. She takes care of herself, drives, cooks and takes care of her own finances. I am an only child age 64, married for 33 years with no children. My husband and I have been asked by friends to visit them in Florida but am reluctant to travel because I still worry about my mom. I am her only relative. My mom is very stubborn and will not let me help her with anything. What do you think I should do?
