Discussion about
My mother in law wants to move in with me to the top floor of a walk up brownstone. Forget the obvious interpersonal issues. What are the chances that an over-weight 65+ year old with a history of heart problems will be "ok" with climbing those stairs every day??? The ground floor is also available, but she doesn't think it will get enough light... However, it has its own entrance, tons of space, access to a small private garden and no stairs.

she will be ok after moving in, making an effort for a few days, and then suggesting you intall a wheelchair lift on every wall of stairs while she camps out on your couch because her old bones just can't take that kind of strain.
