[quote=Anonymous]My dad declined quickly at 73 when my daughter was a toddler. It was very hard to take the time I needed to be with him and care for him. Tough age. Also, I would give a million dollars to have him until he was 83. That said, I don't feel sandwiched. This is just kind of life. We don't have any guarantees of a long life nor can we plan on having our parents around. On the topic of "expecting." My sister made my parents the guardians for her children when they were in their 70s. That truly made NO sense. And was a sign of her illogical thinking. Usually, your parents die before you. Don't make them your kids' guardians. That just means you'll need to change your will quickly.[/quote]
