My mom is almost 101 years old. She must have work to do or she gets very antsy and frustrated. I bought a scanner and give her piles of paper to scan every day. It’s the same pile, but she doesn’t know that and it gives her a great feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction that she is being productive. As she says, we don’t age, only our bodies do. She is now asking me for other tasks and I’m not sure what to give her.

I thought you were going to say you gave her old family photos to scan. I have no idea if she is capable of scanning them and saving them to a pc, but that would be a lot more useful.

I’m glad that she is getting satisfaction from the “work” that you gave her.
