[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I are in our 70s. He is in good health but gets confused and looses track of what he is doing sometimes. My mind is fine ( I hope) but I have incurable cancer. I am takingmedicine which slows its progressions so I may live for quite a while. We both have pensions, long-term care insurance.life insurance and have remodelded our house to rmake it easier for elder care. Two of my daughters live nearby ( with teenage and college-aged granadkids we adore) and the other lives on the oppoite coast. She is divorced and has three wonderful kids in middle and high school. I still try and help them by provding driving, extra money for little things. I am willing to do anything I can to make things easier on my daughters as my disease progresses. I would love to hear suggestions. Should we move to a community with progressive care earlier or later? Or should we stay put and get more help from outside help as we age. Any advice would be appreciated. [/quote]
