This is also a limiting factor both in the lives of those being cared for and those giving the care. Trying to deal with progressive degenerative illness at home usually impairs and limits the quality of life for all involved. Take it for what it's worth, but that's what we've learned from personal experience over the last 12 years. Doing what's right for all involved is a difficult, complex decision, but common sense and sound judgment serve you better than emotion in these circumstances. I wish you good judgment and good luck.
