Caring for an elderly loved one in your home who is not your elderly.
I care for a 86 yr old lady i call Granny. I have known her for 20yrs. Granny lives by herself. Her Daughter lives about 30 feet from her. So we have talked about Granny living with me. Daughter is POA. But wants to have nothing to do with caring for her mother. It is very Sad. Granny has Earlier stages of Alzheimer's. She can not remember if she eat, she doesn't know what day it is, if you tkl to her on the phone she will call another 15 x cause she didn't remeber she called. Good Days bad days. I go over to her house everyday either we go out for breakfast or i make it. She is good with the general cleaning herself. Except for a bath or Shower. I do that. If she was to have an bathroom issue the Daughter will not help her get cleanded up. she either will call me or i smell it the next morning. Again. If Granny comes to live with me in my house what are my options
