[quote=Anonymous]Long story short, FIL has been paraplegic for the last 16 years with the last 2-3 years almost completely bedridden. He has also been going through cognitive decline within the last few years with rapid decline within the last few months. He does not know where he is or who my MIL is for most of the day. MIL has been taking care of him but is at her wits end from a mental and physical perspective. He often wakes up at 1-2 AM and keeps talking non-stop. We are exploring care options for him and do not know what type of care he needs. It seems like he needs nursing and/or memory care. However, we are not sure whether memory care is needed in his case since he has no ability to "leave." Please advise.[/quote]
