[quote=Anonymous]My mom stayed at home until <24 hours Before her death when hospice moved her to their facility. It was what she wanted and we were glad to give it to her. My sister and I tag teamed and my father had a hard time-most of which was because he was losing his partner of 50+ years. With my Dad, we moved him up to our home (from NC to NoVa) for what was his last illness. He needed radiation after surgery and it was difficult to find someone where he lived to help and we did not want him to be alone. That is what worked out to be the best for us. He had family around and could participate in life as much as possible. He would have gone much faster if he were in a nursing home or living on his own. It was difficult of course, but it was worth it for us. I think aging in place works until it doesn’t. Everyone has different circumstances and options and what is the right decision for some is not for others. [/quote]
