My husband and I did the same thing. We bought a house with his parents! Terrible idea and we are looking to move out within the year. We didn't plan we just dove right in and I regret being so foolish! Ugh, live and learn!
I was always dead set against moving in with the kids. I am 64 and my husband died last year. My plan was to buy a van and go live in that. But when I couldn't find a van at the price I wanted, my daughter in law said come live with us for awhile and work this out over time. So That is what I plan to do. It will be a really tight squeeze, but only till I find a good van to trick out. I sold my car and mobile home in a park. I hope to build on that in the next 6 months.
I gave my mom the whole upstairs when she lived with me. There was a room, full bathroom, and living room area for her to decorate etc if she wanted to.

We have to change the idea of retirement. People are retiring too early and running out of money

You were fortunate she could use the stairs.
