Sandwiched Asked August 2017

If I have no savings, will I be required to pay for care?

I just can't anymore. I am flailing and ailing. My own health has taken a back seat to moms. I need to get her somewhere so I can get somewhere. She has Humana taking care instead of state. Does anyone know of their assisted living.

If you can't anymore, then don't. That is common sense. But first make arrangements for it to get done some other way. We can be loving and caring without doing it all hands-on ourselves.


What is it you can't do? Give us a clearer picture and perhaps someone can give you more specific suggestions.

Dear Sandwiched,

I'm very sorry to hear how you feel. I know its hard. Totally understandable that you feel like you are drowning. I'm glad you are asking for help. I would talk with the town office about programs for seniors in the community. There are resources out there and we just need to know where to look. I hope a social worker can help you explore all your options.
