[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're 63 and planning to sell our home and move into a CCC at 67. We've had several very fit friends die of cancer in their early 60s. It feels like time is running out to set things up to make things easy for our kids. [/quote] Your kids will thank you for this! Move when you can happily clean out your home and downsize. You can enjoy all the perks/benefits of a CCRC (I assume that's what you meant) in the independent living for a decade+ hopefully. Know that should you or your spouse need additional care, they will be well taken care of and nearby (in same complex) and the costs will not increase over your regular monthly costs. Parents being separated in different facilities is a real concern for many--when you need care you have to take a space that is available. But in a CCRC you are guaranteed a spot in the necessary level of care and they hold some for residents of independent living at all times [/quote]
