[quote=Anonymous]We just got the letter. My mother's dementia care is going up from $5k to $6K. I know we were lucky to even have it at $5k but $6k is at the tippy top of her budget. She has zero savings and gets a pension plus social security that equals almost exactly $6k. So we could technically pay this, but there would be zero wiggle room. My partner and I cannot contribute financially. A thousand a year for incidentals, yes, but nothing significant. We are happy with the place she is, should we just keep her there until there is a crisis? Or should I look for a less expensive home further out from DC where prices may be lower, even if it is hours away. Feeling really terrible about this whole situation. [/quote]
