Maybe you decided that moving a parent into senior living was the right move a while ago. But now that move-in day is approaching (or has just happened), you're worrying: Will they eat? Will they make friends? Will they call me crying at midnight?
You've been putting off this search for weeks, maybe months. Every time you visit your parent near Lake Acworth or drive out to see them on the weekend, you tell yourself things are okay. But then you notice the garden they used to tend so carefully has gone to weeds, or you find three unopened pharmacy bags sitting on the counter. Something is shifting, and you can't ignore it anymore.
You've been up since 5 a.m. answering work emails, and now you're on hold with your parent's pharmacy — again. Between coordinating medication refills from across town and worrying about whether Mom or Dad actually ate lunch today, you're stretched thin. If you've started researching assisted living communities near Acworth, you're probably wondering: what does a regular day actually look like for someone living there?
