Lot's of good advice and all of it for you to go and enjoy yourselves on the road. PLEASE GO!!!!!! You can always call on a regular basis and stop by on holidays, etc. You have a son just minutes away in case of an emergency.
We were also going to go full time, but it is not going to happen. This last year I was caring for my 94 year old mother in her home. She was in denial about going to assisted living. I lived aways away and would fly in very, very regularly. The stress cause me cascading health issues including blood clots to the lungs and heart, kidney issues and now fighting COPD. The health issues came up very fast and it was no fun sitting in the hospital being told I was extremely lucky.
We only get one shot at life, please take it and go. How quickly things can change. Your Mom will do fine as she is in a very good facility.
GO!
