[quote=Anonymous] 1. I agree with you. 2. But the diseases are not the same. Here the companionship is actually part of the treatment. 3. I know it's hard to see it that way when it's your own loved ones who died and the SILs didn't care, because reciprocity in a relationship is important and you feel resentful and neglected. What you can argue is that your companionship isn't actually that helpful, since what Alzheimer's patients respond to most are their children, siblings and spouses - people they've known and loved for a long time. Anyway. Your family contribution should mostly fall to your husband. [/quote]
