My uncle works from home and his wife works odd hours but my other aunt lives next door and takes gram when needed.
I'm really glad your family can watch over your gram. I should go back there probably to take care of my mother, but I have terrible luck with my apartments in Chicago. I've never lived there very successfully. In the east I live in places for years, but in Chicago I'm moving like every 8 months. Maybe it would be different in the suburbs with a car though. I hope your gram escapes getting worse dementia.
