[quote=Anonymous]My 85 yo mother is having mobility issues and cognitive decline. She lives about 20 minutes from me and part of me says that she should move in with us but it just wouldn’t work. I have a teenager, a husband who works at home and I work out of the home. My mother has become very needy so I wouldn’t want any of her care during the week day to fall on my husband. She doesn’t have a lot of money so she can’t go to assisted living. I got a caregiver 3 days a week and seems to be working. I’m at home 2 days a week so I can do doctor’s appointments, etc. for her on those days. My brother comes a couple times a month on the weekends. I see memory care in her future because we just can’t provide that type of care for her at home. I feel guilty but it’s the only way I can have a somewhat happy home.[/quote]
