As early as possible, you should plan this thing, particularly if you don’t want to be a burden to your family. But I’m sure taking care of you would be such a privilege for your children, in return for the years that you took care of them. -><a href="http://www.healathomecare.com/our-in-home-care-los-angeles/"

I don't want to have my kids burdened nor do I want to feel uncomfortable with them helping me in my daily care. Here there are huge differences in the quality of facilities but there are some very well run assisted living centers.<br /><br />That is sad about your mum. Alzheimers is one of the saddest diseases on the planet. My grandfather had it but I think he was the only one in my family history so far.
