    Is your mom in the Al place now? Moving a lo can be difficult on them, maybe that is the problem. You said we agreed on an assisted living near my sister. Does that mean she hasn’t moved in yet and you are having second thoughts on the facility? If that is the case I can see why she might be frustrated. Is there some urgency to this move? If she is home alone and not safe maybe a decision should be made with some urgency. Family dynamics can be difficult. We are all very passionate about what is best for our lo and that can make for some intense moments with siblings. Maybe ask directly what her concerns are with considering other places. Try to consider her perspective. Maybe there is something you haven’t considered. Good luck!
