There are no solutions Dave. Sometimes we just have to humor people in their old age. At the same time we have to humor ourselves to keep our sanity. I have a similar situation. Just have to avoid the touchy subjects. And you can't convince someone who went through the depression that they are better off spending their money on themselves instead of wasting away in the bank. We have my MIL at home after she broke her hip this summer. 90 and some times as sharp as a tack and sometimes the slight dementia is obvious. She needs one of the power chairs to help her stand up but she won't spend the money so she just has to suffer. Nothing I can do about it so I don't worry. She is one of those people that just do something when it is their idea. So we just use the power of suggestion waiting for the time that she catches on and decides to do something. She goes in shortly to get her second catarat eye surgery done. Her big problem is that she is half deaf and refuses to get a hearing aid. We are yelling all the time around the house and the tv is turned up to 3/4 full volume. That has shortend a lot of conversations cause I tell her I'm not going to yell and remind her she needs a hearing aid (even though she would probably lose it in 2 days).

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
