I care for my elderly 82 yr. old mom we are very financially stable I am 60 yrs. old we live in Oklahoma. Not where I want to continue to live nothing to do live in a town that's filled with Casinos, homeless. We previously lived in Florida. I want to move back but my mom has dementia. Should I pack it up and move us or stay here. She does not want to move. We are ex-Military so she did a lot of moving. Any suggestions. I love this site.

Can't really suggest. This is a decision that is truly personal to you and to your Mom and what you wish to do. What would be right for me, wouldn't necessarily to right for you. But I surely do wish you good luck on the decision.

While the move will initially be hard on your mom, she will over time adjust to a certain degree.
This move is more about you and you having a life that you enjoy as your mom will only continue to get worse and eventually die.
But you have a lot of living to do yet, so why not do it in a place/state that you'd rather be?
I say go for it!

You could go for a "visit" and decide to stay for a "while." By the time you're settled, she could be into fun activities that she enjoys. Then no one wants to move back!
