Man sorry to hear that. I'm an only child and moved back from Dallas to N Louisiana very close to my inlaws, and daughter/grandkids. My parents live in SE Louisiana which is 4 hours away. Better than 9 from Dallas, but still not as close as inlaws. I try to get to visit them once a month, as both are in their 80's. Both have said they will not move, so as an only child, I have to try to help them as much as I can. It's hard. I wish I could do more, have lots of guilt about it.

My parents moved closer to me. I'm an only child. And yet they still moved 30 minutes away.

I try to visit weekly. They are upper 70s. The clock is ticking.

I'd probably move to Tennessee if it weren't for them.
