When my mother faded, I moved her into our home and took care of her for 2 years till she died in hospice right here at home. It’s a tough job, if you can’t do it it’s kinder to place them. If you visit the nursing home often the staff tends to be really nice to your loved one. At least that is the case here. Some people cannot get along with family well enough to care for them. Sad but true.
God bless you for that-it was the right think to do, I think. And anyone who is nasty to family should search their soul and be reminded that they can be in a far worse place-homes are not “home”.
If it is the disabled person’s choice to go elsewhere than with family, that is fine-I’ve had clients who did that, but they didn’t live very long away from loved ones-and some families are not people you would want to live with, either. I love my family, and we get along fine, but if I became severely disabled, I’m out of this life the first chance I get.
