[quote=Anonymous]Man here taking care of his 84-year-old mother with mid-stage dementia. Her expressed/documented wishes are that she does not want to continue living once she cannot clean/dress/feed herself, and our family has a successful track record with assisted suicide. The key to making this work is being retired and all kids grown. She is five years into a prognosis of having 8 years to live. I consider it a gift to me and her that I can be with her and care for her in the final few years of her life. Lean in, people. (Convincing my wife of the rightness of this plan is a remaining challenge.)[/quote]
