[quote=Anonymous]My MIL is the kindest woman I know- it is not an exaggeration to call her saintly- and she eventually found a memory care spot for my FIL with dementia. She’s from a culture where people don’t use nursing homes, but it turns out that there was an entire nursing home devoted just to people who speak their language and immigrated from the same place. This is a thing that people do- even people who say they would never do it- and it is ok! OP, your mom cannot be taken care of properly if you get sick yourself. My MIL still goes every day to see him and care for him, but he also has a paid team of trained caretakers that can keep him safe at night so that she can sleep. You need to sleep and take care of yourself. I wish I could put my MIL on the phone so she could reassure you.[/quote]
