My wife died on May 14th after spending the last month of her life in a CS “nursing home.” The only “nursing” involved is Pay Per Prayer and the more prayers you want from the paid prayer the more each day costs. The nursing home cost $130 per day with minimum prayer but she signed up for the maximum or best prayers and paid $485 per day.
I’m sorry to hear it, Pos. Very sad. I’ll pray ... er, wish for blessings on you ... of courage and love and friendship, and won’t charge you anything at all. God bless and keep you strong.
I’m sorry to hear of your recent loss of your wife. It does sound to me, though, as if this is the kind of “nursing” care she wanted, and hopefully it was a great comfort to her.
The average daily charge for nursing home care in the US is $206, though it varies tremendously by location and also by the quality of the atmosphere/staff. Many provide only the most cursory care — patients don’t get their soiled bedclothes changed for hours after it’s needed, etc., and most of the staff don’t give a hoot how miserable the patients are. If your wife’s extra payment was going toward having someone actually praying with her, keeping her company, etc. for additional hours every day, then the price is comparable to the high end nursing homes where very personalized care is provided and individual interests and desired catered to on a level not found in the average and below average cost nursing homes. She probably got her money’s worth, even if the prayer wasn’t efficacious from a medical standpoint.
I hope you can heal, and eventually be at peace with your wife’s choice.
