[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread makes me so sad. The thought of my parents dying breaks my heart, it’s sad that a lot of people just see it as a burden. [/quote]

If you love your parents and are close to them, the thought of their death is distressing and incredibly sad.

That doesn't mean you don't love your parents if you don't make practical plans. Hoards are real things. (Very heavy, messy, real things!)

I wish I could have spent the time after my mother's death grieving for her instead of dealing with a health hazard. Dang, I wish she would have let me get her into a healthy situation before she died, as I might have had her with me longer.

Heavens, that does not mean I did not love her.[/quote]

+1. Too often, rather than mourning our parents, supporting their family, etc. we end up spending the precious little bereavement time/leave we have cleaning through piles of crap and overwhelmed by stress.  Also, our parents might live longer and in safer, happier conditions, if they don't have to be surrounded by 5,000 square feet filled with dusty crap and hazards.[/quote]
