[quote=Anonymous]OP, does the retirement community have recommended aides or services (like home instead, visiting Angels, and others) who can come by and help with some of the physical needs? There is some of this that can be outsourced, I went thru this with my parents, and her dad needs to be willing to pay for it. That's usually the hard part. Could both you and his daughter talk to him? See what he can afford, what might be covered by insurance or Medicare (if any) and go from there? Is there a social worker in the retirement community your wife could talk to? Does he need to move to a place with a higher level of care? Please support your wife all you can and help her. It is hard OP. The more your wife can outsource the better; it will still be hard to deal with him, but will be more controlled.[/quote]
