[quote=Anonymous]I'm 45. My DH is almost 51. My ex is 48. Between us, we have 5 parents over the age of 68. Four of those parents are not doing well physically or cognitively. I had to help care for my former in-laws while my ex was hospitalized. Very tense, but I love my kids so this is what you do. The "baby" of the group, my MIL is doing well, but her somewhat younger live-in-BF keeps having mini-strokes and its aging her to care for him. We're just wiped out and part of the problem is resistance from the parents to having any caregivers other than their children.[/quote]
