What about a stair lift?
We would have to see how much room is required on the second floor as the landing there is tiny, about 3.5 x 3.5.
Lol, no, that isn't what my mother wants to hear. I sat down with her 10 years ago and tried to talk with her about selling the house and moving into a one story home or assisted living. I warned her that the day may come when she will fall, break her leg and the choice will be taken away from her and she might even be faced with giving up her dog. She flipped out and got angry with me.
Last fall while I was visiting I took her to look at an assisted living community and they welcomed the dog with open arms. She chose not to move because she didn't want to have to take her outside several times a day to go potty. That time again she got upset with me when I expressed my concern about the stairs.
So now here we are, the choice has been made for her and she is afraid of loosing her dog. I am doing my best to figure out what the best option is now.
There are some things I can put on the backburner for a while, but there are others, like spending time with my first grand child and helping my daughter plan her wedding I can't.
