[quote=Anonymous]My parents thought they had planned carefully but had no comprehension of elder care costs in the 21st century (neither did us kids). They were an accountant and administrative assistant with modest pensions and <$1 million in other savings. It's all gone after years of those $10k/month bills. My Dad passed at 86 and my 88-year old Mom is moving to a Medicaid facility this summer. Sometimes that's how it goes when you get old. I have no better suggestion other than to not be sick for very long at the end.[/quote]
