RE:”
Tough day has come for the time to put an elderly parent in a nursing home. being in declining health myself, I have had to make the dreaded decision - nursing home placement of a elderly mother. Two hours a sleep a night and just getting worn out has made the decision to do something I never have wanted to do - put my mother in a nursing home. I am just getting ready for the other 5 siblings to scream, rant and rave. The money will be gone and they want what the believe they are entitled too - an inheritance. What a joke - an inheritance to be given to self centered individuals whom have not seen their own mother since 2012, when the Alzheimer's Disease was diagnosed. I took her into my own home and strived to do all the nursing care and so forth. The primary care physician and the neurologist are to speak with one another and do the joint placement process” Unfortunately I have seen close hand two of my older relatives grow old and crippled and mentally deteriorate years before dying and its a terrible thing to watch and to have happen to them (the patients).
Nursing homes are very bad places to have to live unless maybe if the patient is rich and has a good stable relative to manage things.
It is in most cases hell on earth where people go to wait to die.,
Regardless, it doesn't sound like you had a choice and those who don't have a clue will judge.
