[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for your thoughtful responses. I am an only child, so all decisions related to my mother’s care fall on my shoulders. I feel guilty over having to consider how long my mom will live, and making sure her money will last. It is like using a morbid calculator! We are managing ok at home, but I feel tied to my house, and have not been able to go on a family vacation for over three years now. I can still leave my mom home alone for some hours, but somebody needs to be there to serve her meals. Basically, our situation could be much worse, so there is no immediate need to place her, but I just (in a guilty way) want to look forward to a time when I can get some of my freedom back. [/quote] Maybe consider looking into part-time caregivers in case you will need back up, as well as start looking into the next step in case worse comes to worst. [/quote]
