How to live with your aging parent and still maintain your life and sanity.  Many of us baby boomers will be faced with the prospect of taking our parents in to live with us. There are so many things to take into consideration. Of course, your first thought is how this will change my life and my household. It will without a doubt, but with some consideration as to how changing and scary this may be for your parent or parents, you may be able to work through it all.

First things to think about:  Where will they sleep?  What bathroom will they use?  Are they able to utilize the bathroom the way it is, or will it need modifications?  Furniture, are you using theirs or furnishing it for them?  Will theirs fit in your home?

So now back to remembering how scary this is for your parents. It is so beneficial to help them retain personal things that matter to them and making space for those items makes such a difference in the relocating process.
