"Mom lives in an apartment and drives everywhere. I have never seen her take a walk, even around the block. If I mention taking a walk, she looks at me like I am a crazy person. I am a runner and it is hard for me to imagine such a sedentary life like my mother has. Though mom is quite content with her life the way it is, I think that she is not living her best life. The question is do I say something or do I just let it go. I can project that in five years down the road she will be using a walker because she has not kept up her strength. I do not want to cause conflict, but I want to keep my mom around and mobile."

"My elderly mother has a difficult diet. These are not restrictions posed by her doctor, rather things she came up with on her own. For a little background, mom had breast cancer about three years ago. To the best of our knowledge, she is free and clear right now. Mom is 85 years old at this point, and I am not sure what her goal is. She says that she does not want to die from cancer and she is doing everything she can to prevent that. We have no idea how to cook for her since her diet has changed so much. We could use a little help here."
