"Would you send a loved one to live in a care home 6,000 miles away in Thailand? It may sound callous, until you read about the £42,000 per year, 5 star service in the sun and loving attention of staff (at a fraction of UK costs)".
I have just read about this - I am 65, nearly 66, in reasonable health, no family and separated from my husband for 13 years but still on good terms. I am honestly thinking that I wouldnt mind living in a care home in Thailand.
(When my Mum got dementia she came to live with me for 5 years until she passed - I didnt want her to go in a home).
(I have visited elderly friends in local nursing homes and have seen and heard things that were not right).
I own my home - I dont want to do equity release so thinking to sell at some stage, not yet and then move to Thailand. Bet I dont even have the guts to do it, but sitting here now on my own, not spoken to anyone all day, not been out, then maybe being somewhere warm with kindness and care seems very appealing.
Another week, another Tory MP sex scandal!
Should women have equal pay and opportunities?
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
