My mother and I agreed with this view, as long as I can remember. However, at 83, she fell and broke her hip. She literally could not move. I had to make the choice to have her transported. Her surgery was a success, and physical therapy helped tremendously. Four days after we got her home, she had a stroke. I again, demanded that she go. She's never been the same since. I doubt she ever will be. I felt so guilty to make her go.
