Guatemala Retirement

Casa Muriel, inspired by my mom Muriel Shea (1926 – 2022), is taking shape as an Antigua-based cooperative senior living center with daily personal assistance, medical attention, and all the comforts of living in a fully appointed home. Sharing services and expenses makes economic sense and participating in daily scheduled social events keeps us actively engaged in a vital community.

Background & Concept

From December 2018 to February 2020 I spent nearly every day, including a month of 24/7 day & night care, with my mother in her independent, then assisted living, then rehabilitation centers. Mom’s spirit was always upbeat, and she developed cordial friendships, but then we had to make decisions about dementia and nursing care that would maintain her dignity and personal comfort.

From art classes and physical therapy to hospital admissions and advance directives, I was there by her side, listening, discussing, reading and learning everything possible about the ways we could enhance her quality of life, from the no-nonsense senior care professionals.
I think we can duplicate that high-quality low-stress senior lifestyle that my mother enjoyed, here in La Antigua Guatemala, but with volcano views and tropical gardens.

Warm regards,
Lori & Muriel
