[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My other is turning 90 this week and going on her third year in memory care at about $11,000 a month. Fortunately, my dad, who died three years ago, invested in long-term care insurance that covers some of it and she gets nearly that amount in his pension from a large accounting firm. Fortunately for them, my dad's work terms were all pre-boomers ruining everything. Thanks to the boomers, nobody has pensions anymore. We all have to gamble on our futures by investing in the markets and hoping there's enough to avoid burdening our children. What's the solution? Stop taking drugs that keep your body healthier far longer than it was meant to, and longer than your brain. Once the dementia starts, end the statins, end the blood pressure meds, stop it all, and die naturally. Until science for the brain catches up to science for the heart, we should stop all the meds and die naturally when we were intended to. [/quote]

My neighbor who im friendly with is a caregiver to a bedridden dementia patient (paid) and her charge doesn’t take any meds but has been bedridden for about 6 years and is 84 or 86 now. No signs of going out. [/quote]
