my mother's unique individual in that if she meets you she loves you she doesn't even have to know your name and she sees a crowd of people and she wants to be in that group most people avoid crowds not my mother she's going to be there she's absorbing all the energy from that crowd she's very independent and I just respect her as as the person she is that's mine your son right my son yeah my mother moved in with my wife and I but she still wasn't quite happy because you know living with somebody else is living with someone else and she wanted her own place so we started out on the journey to find a retirement community for her and we'd already decided on another place but someone approached me in church and told me about Central Baptist village so my mother and I came for lunch one day and my mother met some residents of Central Baptist village and she had a positive experience and she made the decision during that lunch she said I really like it here and I'd like to move in my mother has lived at Central Baptist village for three years and I would have to say I think she's loved every moment of it I'm very satisfied with the activities of central babies I mean the activities go all through the day and sometimes don't ended eight or 830 in the evening which is wonderful and that was another consideration because many retirement communities have activities that end at two or three in the afternoon but I wanted my mother to be active I want her to be involved in more things I'm comforted to know that if my mother's needs change and she requires more care that you would be able to move to another section of central baptist village and remain at her home and received that care central baptist village is no doubt the best retirement community in the chicago area when I go home I don't have to worry about her I know I know that she's gonna have the best care I know that if she has needs if she has a problem those problems are going to be addressed it gives me great you
