Long term care is sometimes misunderstood, often maligned. That’s a shame.
Each day I’m grateful that I took care of my mother by purchasing her a good policy. It gives me peace of mind. It’s the best money I’ve ever spent and I don’t part with money easily. Today she’s emptying a warehouse, packing a uhaul (totally on her own) to drive it cross country. She’s doing too much, like she always does. As an only child, I know if there’s an accident, if she breaks her hip carrying boxes, or if anything happens unforeseen, she has a pool of $304,000 (as of Friday - I checked because I worry for her all the time because she’s so active) for a top flight facility if needed. I consider being careful, as being prepared.
I’ve noticed some wear bike helmets in the villages, some don’t. Some (like me) protect our cranium, some don’t. I’m here to help those that do.
Meanwhile as an insulin dependent Diabetic with Hypertension, I’m very sensitive to The future of healthcare due my multiple health issues. This is a very important topic.
