Chris: Hey, we need to talk
Mary: Hi! What's up?
Chris: We're just coming back from Mum's
Chris: I'm afraid we need to discuss what we should do next, it's getting harder for her to get around the house
Mary: Uhm, what are implying?
Chris: We'd like to talk with you about our options
Mary: What options? Is there something wrong with mum?
Chris: She's getting old Mary, really old and I think it's hard for her to take care of herself and the house
Chris: She's doing her best, but the house isn't as clean as it's supposed to be
Chris: She even forgot to make breakfast for herself. I'm not sure she's taking her meds properly
Mary: Oh no, that's not good
Chris: No, it's not good and I think it can't go on like this
Mary: So what are you suggesting?
Mary: You know I can't take her in
Chris: I know. Jane and I decided to look for a place for her
Mary: Like a nursing home?
Chris: Yes, Jane's friend knows a couple of places
Mary: Why can't you take her to your place? Your house's huge
Chris: Mary, I'd love to, but we don't have time
Mary: Jane's working from home, I can't see why she can't help. I could visit you as well
Chris: Can't you understand? Jane IS working from home, but it doesn't mean she can take care of mum, that's not her job, she needs to focus
Mary: But it will kill her, you know she hates nursing homes
Chris: She’s never even been to one! They can take proper care of her, Jane doesn’t have any medical training, what if something bad happens? We won’t be able to help her
Mary: We need to think this through, come over and we can talk about this
Mother of Chris and Mary is getting older and she can't take care of herself and her house. Neither May, nor Chris and Jane can't take the mother to their places. They're considering to find her a nursing home.
