To say that a person with the disease is dead all ready is just plain - strange. Granted, at the end, that could be true, but not in the early stages. It is a wild and crazy adventure, but the person is not "dead". <br /><br />I don't get this opting out of responsibility thing. It's a heck of a lot cheaper to dump a person in a nursing home and forget them, who cares about dignity? Right now I'm agonizing over the fact that we're going to be needing around $125,000 a year to keep my father at home. We have the facility for it. I have some trustworthy mid-stage people to come in and help the parents. I need long-term care-givers I can trust.<br /><br />You can go around saying that person is dead already or give them some dignity. My mother has been agonizing all day that my sister and I would put our father in a nursing home if something happened to her. I told her that is not the case, which is true. I did tell her though, there is the possibility of violence. If this happens, she comes first and I can be cold-blooded about it. <br /><br />I have a friend who discovered his father brutalizing his mother, trying to kill her. I told my mother this is something I will not allow. Other than that, we're cool.<br /><br />SJR<br />The Pink FlamingoSJ Reidheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07009929983462161529noreply@blogger.com
