[quote=Anonymous]Growing up, my father's elderly aunt lived with us. When she had a stroke and was bedridden, my mother took care of her (and so did my father, to be fair) as if she was her own relative, for three years until the day my great aunt died. She said she couldn't bear to put her in a home. But they lived together before care was needed and got along very well and loved each other even if they weren't related by blood. I think it's very different if there is no good relationship, of course, but this is something from my childhood that really stuck with me about family taking care of each other.[/quote]
