Barbara, This subject invades my thoughts from time to time as I watch my children. My daughter has her hands full with 6 kids and my son is just beginning to think about marriage and family. I do not want to be a burden to them or change their plans because of my PD. What to do?? I have a house, paid for. I have investigated in-home-health & support services and know that I will be eligible for them when the time comes. This will help me through some of the future. By the time I will need it, I hope I will have an agreement with a nursing home somewhere. I am still working on that one. It doesn't hurt to make plans for the future. don't forget how to laugh Marling [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]
