A good contractor might have ideas for a design that would work for her. I'm so happy that I thought ahead 20 years ago and bought a one level house with bathrooms big enough to accommodate my mobility scooter.

That's wonderful that you did that.
My Mom has been so spry into her much later years, that I almost think she didn't picture herself not being able to get around. I'm sure it is hard to fathom, but after one fall and some other things, she has gone through a few months here and there where she thought she was broken for good ! Fortunately she wasn't, but still. I would never live in anything but a one level (by choice) again. I get around fine and do steps decent when I have to come and go, but every day, multiple times a day? No Thanks !
My mom will be 91 this year. She is living alone in a very rural tiny mobile home and claims to love it. She is near one grandson, who looks out for her, but far from the rest of the family, a few of who try to make yearly visits. I see it as far from ideal, but she has raised beds for gardening and a riding mower and mows her large average herself. She won't hear of having it any other way!
