My mother had dementia and last year at this time it was clear that my dad could no longer take care of himself much less both of them. So my brother and his wife offered to look after Mom in their home while Dad wanted to move into a private room in a nursing home. Mom died in her bed last fall never having to leave family. I thought that was pretty remarkable of my brother and his wife. I cannot imagine the time and effort and patience it took. I wish we could all go that way but without burdening others to do it.
