Grandma Essie vs. the Nursing Home

With her mind as sharp as ever, and a home full of family visitors, Grandma Essie celebrated her 90th birth day on a beautiful spring day in 1997. Shortly thereafter, Essie’s physical health started to deteriorate and daily tasks that used to be simple became very difficult. Fortunately, the family whom she had taken such good care of for so many years was committed to helping her age as comfortably as possible. Together, they arranged for Essie to be admitted to the finest assisted living center that money could buy. This state of the art center was built in a scenic mountain valley and complete with a personal nurse/assistant for every resident and a never ending schedule of activities. However, there was one small problem: Grandma Essie had no intention of moving into any type of “nursing home” no matter how many granite floors, flower gardens, or bridge clubs it advertised. She was determined to maintain her dignity and independence by living out her years in the red brick home her late husband had built 50 years earlier. And that is exactly what she ended up doing.
