[quote=Anonymous]Help! Mom had significant stroke in October, has regained some functioning but pretty sure she’ll never be able to live alone again. She has always been mean and volatile and her situation now has worsened her ability to deal with people. She needs round the clock care and has burned through 4 caregivers since coming home. She is awful to them and they ( understandably) leave. She refuses to go an assisted living. She may have some early/mild dementia but no way would she be declared incompetent so she still gets to make her own decisions. My sister and I are over it. We’ve done a ton to try and support her and facilitate her care needs and it just feels like a big failure. We’ve checked out multiple assisted livings and she refuses. Do we just say “ok you’re in you’re own now?”[/quote]
