She has failing eyes, loves to read but can't because of her poor eyesight. I have checked into the library but was disappointed there are minimal amount of large print books or books on cd available at stores, like Barnes and Noble. Any other tips or places to purchase books from? Are there other ideas that I should involve her in? She doesn't like going a lot of places but I do get her to come over for dinner, go to church, but that is about it.
I think at 90 she will be feeling acutely alone without her husband, and probably many of her friends are also gone. It sounds like she would probably benefit from the social interaction with her peer group and the activities offered in assisted living. I allowed my mother to convince me she was fine by herself after my dad died, but due to her low vision she was housebound and became socially isolated. Change is hard, and change when we are old has got to be even harder, but sometimes it is what we need. Some assisted living facilities offer short term trials, it might be worthwhile to check it out.
