[quote=Anonymous]My MIL doesn't have dementia but has advanced Parkinson's and cannot walk unassisted by a human plus her walker. My BIL hired an aide overnight to help her to the bathroom. She's paid very little and sleeps when she's not called to help my MIL - I assume she also has a day job. My MIL has day time aides who cook, clean and give her massages for her painful cramps and hand her her easiest meds. She has a nurse come regularly for the injectables, and a physical therapist who also visits. My MIL wants to die at home and never go into nursing care, so that's what her children are trying to implement. [/quote]
