[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 547116, member: 14356"] That was an interesting article Terry, thank you for sharing it. I am not in that position right now. My inlaws do live in the apartment attached to our home but they are pretty independent. I go to dr.'s appts with them because they can't remember everything and I dish our fill's medications for him also but so far that's all I have to do. I sure hope they can continue to maintain their independence as long as possible. It's hard on them to realize they are starting to need help. I don't mind helping but I could certainly see how it could become difficult very quickly when you are on their schedule and tied to their needs, not to mention no time with your spouse. A difficult situation for both the caregiver and the receiver of that care. [/QUOTE]
