[quote=Anonymous]I think very few women expect their husband to care for them in their old age, so welcome to our world. We generally outlive our husbands plus men are typically not great at care taking task (for cultural reasons—I’m not implying there is anything predetermined about this). If my husband is still alive when I am this way (doubtful), I’d trust him to drive me to doctors appointments and hire a caregiver but not much else. Daughters or long term care insurance is what most women plan for. Or a bottle of pills in the bathroom.[/quote]
