[quote=Anonymous]My father passed away last summer and had similar issues, no dialysis. Decline can be rapid, one week walking next week immobile. Dad wasn't violent at all. It took my mom, full time elderly assistant and day time nurse to take care of him. Plus my sister, me, when I was there, and my BIL. Incontinence becomes worse. All three caregivers were exhausted all the time. And extremely stressed. I think your heart is in the right place, but that you don't know what you would be taking on. Your whole family will become hostage to FIL, not his fault, just the way things works out. You might become resentful towards him and MIL too. Human nature too. If you have money, you should think of paying for a better facility.[/quote]
