[quote=Anonymous]My parents have all of the pieces in place for the most part - but even with air-tight living wills, long term care policies, funds to pay for independent living and people to clean the house and help with the yard - even an accountant - there is a caregiver and emotional support role that cannot be pre-arranged/outsourced no matter how much you plan - especially if you live a long time. I'm 10 years into this with my mother and the demands and costs are very eye opening. My sister took her MIL in 8 years ago - she is now completely dependent at 91- and my sister has not been on a vacation with her husband for 5 years. [/quote]
