[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The costs of private care are nearly impossible. How does anyone afford $8-10,000 a month for ten years?? [/quote] My mom has two separate long-term care insurance policies that (THANK GOD!) she started paying for around 2001. She had a stroke in 2010 and has been in assisted living ever since. She has long since recouped the cost of premiums and then some. I don't even know if you can buy long-term care insurance now or how much the premiums would be.[/quote] She lived with us for a couple of months before she moved into assisted living. A nurse came in three times a week to help her with bathing. Nevertheless it drove me nuts. Can't imagine doing that for ten years.[/quote]
