I need to have this conversation with my parents. They are in their mid 70s and doing great, but anything can happen. We talked about it a bit about 5 years ago when we were tag teaming taking care of my grandmother through her end of life and made some light plans, but everything was so heavy and emotional at that time I'm not sure where they stand now. I am glad, for many reasons, that I had an active role caring for my grandmother during her decline. Stage IV breast cancer, alzheimers, sundowners syndrome. She kept us busy. One thing I learned was that I'm not going to be able to count on my brother to provide any actual help. Gratitude to you all who are spelling out the thoughts and options to be looking at for long term care and security.
