[quote=Anonymous]I know people who are part of a round the clock care team that also involves nurses and has doctor's available, in addition to aides. Anybody who has enough money can spend their final years at home this way. I suppose some medical conditions might require hospitalization but that could likely be temporary. My own mother died at home at 90. We had no desire to have her anywhere but home with us. She also had expressed a desire to not go to a hospital so we also avoided that. Hospice will send nurses and doctors to the home. If either the mother or the OP's husband's sisters believe it is best or simply desire to age and be cared for and die at home then I can see where the sisters would consider it a betrayal if OP's husband tried to change the plan.[/quote]
