get your mom a smaller bed and a recliner... both available free from craigslist if you watch it.

And, PLEASE quit being such a drone for her... Ridiculous for her to complain about being dropped off early for her appt:

"Yeah, I can understand not wanting to sit in the hospital. Feel free to make other arrangements, I won't be insulted."

Re the TV:

"This is family space, and having fun together takes precedence. You also have private space where you can enjoy your own things. How can we make that space work better for you?"


Best,
Oldtimer
