Description

The Asking Eric advice column is written by R. Eric Thomas.

Dear Eric: My 93-year-old mother is in an assisted-living facility. She has been there for two and a half years. Her decline began when she lost her brother with whom she lived. She has not been able to deal with his death and has lost the will to live.
