[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'd be more concerned about your parents' ability to care for themselves in the event of serious illness or incapacitation. I've been dealing with some form of parental illness for 15 years now. Your parents may be in fantastic shape now physically and mentally but please take it from me, this can change radically and without warning once they are in their 60s and 70s. My parents had sufficient resources to give them every option for care -- if your brother is dependent on your parents' income and home, that's going to severely limit whether they will have the resources for memory care or skilled nursing care or even just pursuing the best treatments for a serious illness. You need to be having that conversation with them, now. I understand that you're worried about what will come for your brother, but you need to think about your parents first (since they are his caretakers.)[/quote]
