[quote=Anonymous]My husband is Vietnamese, OP. His mother decided she did not want to live in a home. Luckily she has just enough money to live a frugal life with 24/7 aides in her own home. But my MIL did suggest, at one point, that she live with one of her children. EVERYONE SAID NO. So please don't think that all Vietnamese people are like your colleague. Also, regarding the doctor's comment. Yes, they're right. But prolonging the life of the elderly person in dementia or in advanced stages of illness is NOT the goal, here. The goal is trying to balance everyone's needs as well as possible, and keep the patient as comfortable as their old age and ailments will allow. [/quote]
