[quote=Anonymous]This is a fascinating thread! As someone who has been in this EXACT situation here is my story. Moms illness dragged on for 5 years. 3 with dementia. The family members like SIL/BIL did NOTHING. They felt it was someone’s else’s job even though I was many hours away. All the time I lost with my family; ie kids and DH. If I could go back I would have let them put Mom in care much earlier. Caring for a dementia patient is not a job for a teen or a neighbor! It’s really on the father to figure this out not pad out his retirement. [/quote]
