[quote=Anonymous] Yes, I've got two parents who really really really should be in assisted living...they refuse (and only Mom is cognitively enough to decide). They spent the summer in the hospital/rehab after Dad with parkinsons fell on Mom and broke her hip. I work fulll time , commute 2 hrs a day and have a dc with sn. It was...something... anyhow you can't make them sell their house and get into assisted living if they/one of them are of 'sound' mind. 'Sound' mind doesn't mean 'make GOOD decisions' I found out! But no, OP, you do not pay-it goes on her assets-and you have to put yourself and your own family first. That was hard for me to realize...but I get it now. [/quote]
