something new to figure out.  i need to talk to my mom on the phone.  right now Lisa entirely supports my mom's assisted living.  1) my mom is afraid that she is causing this problem.  2) my mom is afraid she's out on the street.

can we ask Lisa if there's anything i can tell my mom to help her.

Yes. This is a good one to send:

“Can I ask your help on one specific thing? I need to talk with my mom, and she is very scared right now. She thinks she caused this and is afraid she could lose her assisted living support. I want to reassure her accurately and not overstate anything. Is there anything specific you’re comfortable with me telling her right now about near-term support for her care while we work through counsel?”

If you want, I can make a firmer or softer version.


text: not just near term.  the fear is long term.  i can't support my mom by myself.


text:
Absolutely. Try this:

“Can I ask your help on one specific thing about my mom? I need to talk with her, and she is very scared right now. She thinks she caused this and is afraid she could lose assisted living support. This is not only a near-term fear for her; it’s long-term too, and I can’t support her care by myself. I want to reassure her accurately and not overstate anything. Is there wording you’re comfortable with me sharing about our intent around her support while we work through this process?”


text: can you pull her response?


text: Pulling now from Lisa’s thread and checking the newest entry after your last sent message.


text:
Yes. Latest response from Lisa is:

“**Yes. Note that this is ChatGPT-ified language, though.
You can reassure her that I intend to continue covering her assisted living while we work through this process. Nothing about our separation changes my love and care for her or my desire for her to feel secure.**”

text: can we reply something about the long term support question, that she didn't answer?


text:
Yes. I’d send this:

“Thank you, that helps and I’ll share it with her. I do need to ask the part I raised about long-term support: are you willing, in principle, to include continued support for her assisted living in our longer-term agreement? I understand details will need to go through counsel; I’m asking about intent so I can reassure her honestly.”


text: wait, she sent more... pull?


text: Pulling latest now from Lisa’s thread so we can respond to the newest context instead of outdated text.


text:
Yep, new ones came in. Latest from Lisa:

1. **6:13:31 PM**
   “I’m assuming I will continue supporting her care one way or another. I’m just not sure yet what the structure will look like as we work through separation and legal guidance. There’s no intention to disrupt her stability.”

2. **6:15:43 PM**
   “Please let kori know that too”

This answers the long-term intent question pretty directly. Want a short confirmation reply drafted?


text: yes please.


text: “Thank you, that’s really helpful and I appreciate you saying it clearly. I’ll let Kori know exactly that: your intent is to continue supporting Mom’s care and not disrupt her stability, even as structure gets worked out through legal guidance.”


text: i'll let both Kori and my mom.  Kori is my sister.


text: “Thank you, that’s really helpful and I appreciate you saying it clearly. I’ll share this with both Kori and my mom: your intent is to continue supporting her care and not disrupt her stability, even as structure gets worked out through legal guidance.”
