Never work in a nursing home.

You’re giving them a level of rehumanisation they wouldn’t have in a nursing home. That’s the best anyone could ask for given the circumstances. There’s absolutely no shame in taking that step for their own protection when your own abilities are exhausted but either way you’re protecting them at their most vulnerable moment.
We’re getting close with my great-grandma, she’ll have to go into a medicaid facility sometime next year if she lives that long; we already had to sell her house back to the bank in order to pay for all her medical expenses.
Thank you for the kind words, for real. And godspeed to you too; I can’t imagine doing this type of work professionally. :fidel-salute-big:
