I didn't talk much about my Mom's living situation when she relocated to a nursing home. Everyone has an opinion, and I wanted to focus on my Mom and not those opinions. My Mom lived for over 2 years in a nursing home, and I mean lived. In fact, I am convinced that when her body began to limit her living she and God decided it was time to leave.
Since my Mom's death, I certainly have been sad -- I lost the only constant of my 52 years. However, rather than focusing on what I lost, I am focusing on how lucky I have been.
My Mom's living situation provided many unexpected benefits. One of them is that we were able to focus on grieving when she died, rather than dealing with stuff. She owned so little at the end -- about 3 1/2 hours after her death, her stuff was packed up and we didn't have to return to the nursing home. That was the easiest and quickest move....
Not having to take time to deal with my Mom's stuff left time to focus on her funeral arrangements, and then to heal and figure out how to live without her. For a number of days following my Mom's burial, we contemplated the words to be added to the cemetery marker. Focusing on that was better than focusing on a bunch of stuff.
Don't get me wrong, it's not that my Mom didn't have tons of stuff. It's just that she had downsized twice already. More than 10 years ago, I helped her move from the 3 story house in which she had lived for about 80 years to a 4 room condominium. That process was quite a challenge, but we were prepared. The second downsizing came with the nursing home. There, she had a comfortable space with just a few select treasures.
A significant takeaway from my Mom's death is:
for your sake and the sake of the ones you will leave behind, everyone should consider living with less stuff. Doing so will produce benefits now and later.
