[quote=Anonymous]I have a relative that moved to a new house that had basically a separate apartment area where she could put her spouse and his 24-7 caregivers.  So it was right there but she had her own space and his area locked so he couldn’t wander the house and her hurt or lost.  It worked pretty well but was probably more expensive that memory care.  Thankfully he ended up dying of a heart attack before he got to the stage where he just sat there and stared blankly.  The expensive memory care places have more things that you could have in a privat home — eg special games or art projects, pets that visit, etc.  so there can be some advantages.  
For whatever reason, Bruce’s wife gets a lot of grief in public fora.  I remember when he was public about his diagnosis, a lot of people said she had pushed him to make all those awful movies in his last few years as a gravy train situatoo.  And others pointed out that perhaps he was trying to make as much money as possible in the last few years to make sure his young children were provided for.  None of us are in a situation to know.
