[quote=Anonymous] I do not agree that things are necessarily an entitlement, but I do think that it is sad when folks do not understand what service may be available to help them out and this is a particularly warranted case - an elderly woman who has been caring for a disabled son for as long as she could and not relying on the government to just step and do it for her. I hope that you will try and make sure your aunt gets connected to some professionals who can assess the care needs of both her and her son and make contact with the right services which might help them. You never know that with the right mix of possibly home health, companion/respite, day support program for the son, home delivered meals, occasional homemaking assistance that your aunt may not still be able to stay in her home with her son, especially if there was caretaker assistance for him at start and end of day.[/quote]
