I’ve gone through something similar with my aunt. She’s always valued her independence, so we tried to step in gently, starting with things she found most challenging, like keeping track of medications and getting groceries. It helped not to take over everything all at once, she felt more comfortable and wasn’t embarrassed about accepting a bit of help with housework here and there. Keeping her included in decisions, even small stuff like meal planning, made a big difference for her sense of control.
