[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, nobody knows what’s coming. The worst case scenario we’ll have to somehow manage our elderly parents at home with us. That’s what ppl in poor countries do. It’s hard but it’s not impossible. [/quote] Have you done it. My in law had severe dementia. She was a loving and kind person to turned abusive, then couldn’t do anything or be left alone. Stooped talking, bathroom, etc. I did it for a year. 24-7 care till I was to my breaking point with young kids and couldn’t leave the house. No money for help. We had no choice but a long term Medicaid bed. [/quote] No but my older family all did it, not with dementia but other ailments. Only one mentally ill relative (grandma) went to a psych ward.
