My mom hints about moving in with me. What do I do?

My mom has hinted and even come right out and said, “why can’t you take care of me?” She’s in a beautiful AL and basically getting the best care money can buy. She’s a wonderful mom but I have to remind her she put her own mother in a home. She will respond kind of sadly, “I know”. I can’t imagine caring for her in my home without losing my mind. It’s not only stress but too much time together could damage our relationship. I visit her twice a week and all we do is laugh. Isn’t this a lot healthier for the both of us?

Oh Mother 😔.
I wish we could both live in a beautiful (insert: cabin in the woods/beach shack/fancy apartment in Paris/wherever).
But we are here.
Oh well. Shrug.
We have our homes. And we do alright, don't we?
Have a hug 🤗
