[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are also adult day care programs where you to take her to a group setting for the day.  The socialization aspect of that is very nice and positive.[/quote]

Different poster. They take precautions and it is well worth the risk. Brain rot is far worse without socialization.

OP you need to think long term. What you are proposing does not sound sustainable. I would research memory care now. It's not all going to magically fall into place when you realize she is farther along that you thought. Also, one fall/surgery/life trauma and she could progress quickly. Better to already be in the right setting.

Does she even have friends where she is? You said for cultural reasons you want to keep her in her home. Is it even safe for her? Does she hav e a network besides you? The old fashioned cultural ideas go along with villages and communities where people can support this. They don't jive well with busy parents being stretched thin and neighbors who have their own lives and stressors.[/quote]
