My husband and I have really enjoyed growing old together and so far we have been so blessed to have avoided any large health problems, but just recently we began to notice that we having a hard time doing all of the things that we had once been able to do, so we determined to see what independent living Phoenix could offer. We chose Phoenix because we felt like we would be more comfortable in a warmer climate where icy weather would not create any driving hazards for us when we went out.

Probably the biggest draw that Phoenix had for us was the fact that our daughter and her family lived down there and we could hardly wait to be close enough to them so that we could see our precious grandchildren all the time. Our first thought was that we could have our daughter find us a place to live by investigating the different communities for independent living Phoenix had, but we determined that we wanted to be able to choose the place for ourselves, so we got online to look ourselves.

My husband and I are not exactly technologically savvy, but after a little bit of trial and error we were able to figure out enough to find some amazing senior communities in that area. The more we read about these communities, we found that one senior community really impressed us and we could really picture ourselves being happy there, still having our independence, but also having help available when we needed it.

We called up our daughter and let her know that we were going to drive our for a visit soon and wanted to arrange a time when we could all go take a look at this place and see if it really was where we would want to live. When we went to tour this community, we were thrilled to find that it looked even nicer in person than it had on the website and all of the staff that we met was friendly and personable and we felt right at home there.

We had a great visit there and enjoyed ourselves enormously and when it was time to leave, we were all pleased to know that we would be coming back again soon, and this time for good. When we returned home, we instantly began making our preparations to move, and while we had a small moment of regret about leaving our long time home, we were too excited about moving to the best senior housing Phoenix had to offer!
