[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Grandmother moved in when I was in 5th grade, she had dementia. It ruined my childhood, having dementia patient in my house. No friends over, my mother was overwhelmed, the police were called to the house on multiple occasions. So no, never, ever, ever. I will make sure I have enough money in retirement to go to a place that can properly care for me when I am too old to care for myself. I will never, ever, ever, ever put that burden on my children and grandchildren.[/quote] Sorry you had to experience that as a child. I totally get it. My FIL with dementia can act like giant belligerent toddler and be downright scary when he gets it in his head that he still has a valid drivers license and someone is holding his keys hostage or something equally crazy. He doesn't sleep at night either, just little naps all day. He has 24 hour care. No way we could do it and I wouldn't put my kids thru it. [/quote]
