I don't know your or your mom's age, but I'm guessing you're somewhere around 40-45, and your mom somewhere around 65-70.
If I'm correct, it looks like someone who has taken no precautions with regard to becoming old. My father is the same. He's been living in this huge-ass house with a 57m x 10m garden.
I doubt I and my sister can get him to move to some sort of a senior apartment or something. While he can still live there with the help of some occasional cleaning help once every week to do the big stuff, I can see he's unable to keep up the house.
Nothing has been done since he's pensioned off 20 years ago (after 40 years as a coal miner and construction worker, 77 now), and I can just see the house become worse and worse. If he lives another 10 years or more, it'll just deteriorate further; especially the kitchen.
