[quote=Anonymous]OP, have you looked into adult daycare? They are less expensive than nursing homes, and sometimes free in certain contexts (e.g., community days). My grandma is 93 and the local senior center does a day where she can go get her hair done, a day she can go hear live music, etc. My other grandma has passed now but when she was alive my parents paid for her to go to a daycare several times a week and they had nice activities or would go on little trips. The county may also offer other resources like respite care - a break for you, to refresh. Usually the local government has a website and phone line to connect you with resources. It's hard, I'm sorry. But there are alternatives to doing everything yourself. [/quote]
