Thanks. Yep I sure do feel like a villain. We suggested a few places. The problem is she’s on a fixed income and we’re in New York where rents are ridiculous right now. Due to her age she really wants to stay in town. Not be outside of town. She wants to be close to the store, doctor, pharmacy which I understand. These are the places that have waiting lists one to two years. We did things legally we gave her three months formal notice. We cannot evict her until after the three months is up. We verbally told her if she needed longer that we would give her longer but we cannot give her one to two years. We offered to help her pack, we offered to help her move just not her furniture as we do not have a truck. She responded with threats and she also called our local state assemblyman. Of course this angered my husband and he does not want to give her the extra time or help her anymore.
