Mom lost her home in Katrina. How can I bring her back to see the damage if she's afraid to go home?

Answer 1

Give her the time she needs. Katrina was a devastating storm. Don't be surprise if she never wants to go back. Be patient with her and don't try to force her to go home before she is ready.

Answer 2

Don't force her. She's not ready. You have to remember that she's been through a lot. It's harder for some people then others to accept something terrible that has happened to them. You don't want to bring back old memories if she's not ready. Take your time...

Answer 3

You don't. She needs to come back when she is ready.
