Reality of Caring for a Parent Full-Time

http://www.cracked.com/personal-experiences-2158-taking-care-my-dying-mom-my-career-5-realities.html

A little lengthy, but this is a sobering, and at times humorous, look inside the realities of balancing life while caring full-time for a sick parent.

"Apparently, you don't need a degree certificate to care for a disabled loved one. Hell, you don't even need a CPR class. Gumption, moxie, and just the right amount of crazy are all it takes to become medically responsible for an entire human being."

Self-Completed Walk-In Tub

These are pictures sent to us from a customer who opted to self-install in Colorado. They also chose not to use our faucets, but instead go with their own Venetian bronze fixtures to match the rest of their remodeled fixtures.
Many of our customers choose to have their own contractor install their walk-in tub, which is fine by us, and actually comes with a sizeable discount, up to 20% in some cases.
TheraTub wants your walk-in tub to fit in with your bathroom environment, not overwhelm it. While we offer faucets, installation, wall-surrounds, aromatherapy, and the like, but we want you to feel free to either use them or order the tub only. Whatever you feel gives you the most control and, ultimately, comfort, in your bath space.

When asked about her secret to longevity, she said simply, "Paying it forward. Being kind to others and helping those in need leads to a long life."
We honor your service, Alyce. Rest in peace, Ma'am.

Filing My VA Claim

"There is a lot that goes into this process, which is why it takes time. Not to mention, the more a Veteran is seeking from VA the longer the process is going to be." Food for thought, especially for young veterans.

Recent Review

A review from Carol in FL: "Jay, who came to my house, was polite and knowledgeable. He informed me that with a doctor's note, the cost of the tub was completely tax deductibe. Then installers were equally outstanding. When I panicked at seeing the first stage of installation, they assured me that I'd neve know such a mess existed. And boy, were they right! Within less than five hours, my new tub wa completely installed and the house all back to normal. And I do love my new TheraTub. (And it was over $1,000 less than the other two companies I met with prior to ordering my TheraTub). Thanks to all of you."

Costs and Incidence of Long Term Care

"many retirees will require long-term care support during their lifetimes, and...the probabilities that this will happen are large enough to warrant some careful planning."
