My Mother seems to think her children should pay for her care, so she refuses to have carers at home even though she needs them. She was sent home from hospital with care, but she got rid of them before it reached the point at which her finances were assessed! I set up a private care company for her to do shopping and cleaning etc, but she rang them and cancelled.
We are not in a position to pay for her care, and even if we were, she has many pensions and plenty of money, so I think she's being unreasonable and I cannot understand her objections. If she needed a care home I think things would get problematic because she does not think she should pay. Not quite sure what to do about that when the time comes.
I can tell she thinks I should give up work to care for her, but I cannot afford to and am still paying towards my pensions! I also don't live near her and we don't have a suitable home for her to live in with us. I feel like it's an impossible situation as I cannot give up working to care for her and cannot pay for her care either- PLUS she's a wealthy woman after a generous divorce settlement and several pensions. She just won't spend any money. (((sigh)))
It seems she will neglect herself rather than pay for care and she's talking about sacking the cleaner now. Grrr.
