She won't be leaving until the 1st weekend after New Year's...so maybe by then there will be a plan, but with Mom....it's either her way....or no way.

I'm so sorry Janet! Do you think there might be a chance that she could change her mind between now and New Years? I know you worry so much about your Mom! I totally understand! I sure hope it all works out for the best.~Hugs~

Sorry....I know that you get so fustrated with your Mom. Is your brother blind.....can't he see all the health problems that your Mom has been having? Slap him up side the head a couple of times for me......if you get close enough!!! LOL I'd make sure that he knows that he's responsible for her if she has problems while in Florida. I'd be furious too!!!!!

Oh absolutely, I agree with Diana. You make SURE that he KNOWS he is responsible for any problems/issues that arise while she is in FL - and there surely will be problems. If there isn't, then I'll be a monkey's uncle
 . If he knows that he's going to have to go down there to help her when she gets in trouble, then maybe he will have second thoughts about taking her down there (his wife taking her down).That is just insane! BUT, your mom is bound and determined to go, so what will be, will be. Just make it known to everyone that you absolutely are opposed to the trip and that you will not be helping in any way if she gets into trouble. I know that sounds heartless, but it is not. Your mom is being completely unreasonable, and your brother is crazy, stupid or both.

It seems like your mom at least wouldn't want to leave her doctors!! Has she forgotten how many times she has to call you for help? Does she think you'll just zip down to Florida? I'm sorry Janet.

Thank you all for understanding. AND yes Gayle....my brother is both. I don't speak with him often...he is so moody and I don't like walking on eggshells around him. I think I may email him and let him know how my other brother and myself feel about this, I just don't want a confrontation and it will surely get me one. Hopefully Mom will realize she shouldn't go, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

I'm glad to hear that your other brother is on board with her not going!
Do you think you could have a heart to heart with your mom? If you can, you might tell her that you understand that she wants to go to FL, but that she has to understand that when she is down there, she is on her own. If she gets sick or needs something or someone, that you can't go down there to help her and you can't go down to get her. I'd let her know I didn't approve of her going, but that if she goes, she is on her own and you will not be able to help her from IN and you wish she would stay in IN for the winter.
