[quote=Anonymous]I agree that if your dad had a sudden illness and has been offered rehab, he should 100% do it - he will get PT/OT everyday not just two days a week. Major difference. He has a much better chance of recovering with more PT/OT. And 20 days are paid by Medicare for rehab and up to 100 days are paid by Medicare for skilled nursing. The other thing I want to gently say is that while you sound like a great, supportive kid, I don't think it's fair of them to expect or you to expect that you will tank your own life, earning power, etc. to help them stay in their house. Eldercare in our country sucks. Your parents haven't planned well for themselves (I'm sure the current status was not "planned" or their intention.). Find a social worker and figure out how to get them care within their means. [/quote]
