I know that part of the problem will be moving away from our grandchild and daughter/son-in-law but they live outside Houston and we live 8-9 hours north of them so it is no small trip to see them now.
I tell her we can fly to see them. That does not seem to help.

She also feels that she is her mothers closest help but her brother also lives in the same town as we do as well as her mother so he could help.
She has said that she could see living in TV but not before her mother is gone. Her mother is 80 now but does not look, feel or act 80 and we hope it stays that way. So I have to convince her that her mother can live with out her right down the street while we are in TV. I don't want to be 80 before I can move there!

I guess a good test of this would be renting in TV for a month to see how they do apart like that.

Just thinking ahead here. I don't think we would move to TV full time for another 4 years but snowbirds would be in a couple years so I need to get my story and facts together to get her leaning more my way.
Thanks
