Sarah, me, too but only $50 too much. I'm 74 not seriously handicapped like your mom but chronic pain /degenerative disks, fibromyalgia, etc so standing for over an hour is really painful. The financial stress exacerbates the pain. I have to go Food Bank Co-pays add up - I can't afford the supplement insurance!
I hope your mother gets the help she needs to cope. I am a teaching artist 1x a week for profoundly disabled, some are blind - surprisingly, they love to make art :) Life doesn't have to end for mom, but it needs to change. There are services available - Give your mom hope, buy her playdoh & clay. I make collage with my clients, different textures & a few have color memory. & music. Does she have pet? They are healers. Bless you for being a good daughter.
I"m lucky because the facility works with me re art, all 1/1. I don't push wheelchairs or position the clients. I can sit depending on project & client & I make my own schedule - it is a life-saver & joyful work.
