Not sure this is the right sub.
My parents and father in law died long ago, RIP. Wife and I are looking for a new home and considering getting one large enough for us to invite her mother to live with us.
She has physical limitations. An uninsured person of low character ran a red light and t-boned her car a couple years back. She sustained several ‘life-ending’ injuries but miraculously survived. A family friend moved in with her to act as caregiver, but that arrangement is over. Now the choices are either a nur$ing home or moving in with us.
I am family oriented and believe institutions can be a horror, but I am not sure we are equipped to provide what she needs since wife and I both work full time. Anyone have experience caring for an aged parent and willing to share your advice? Thanks.
