Perhaps I’m speaking out of turn and your not going to like what I have to say but…..
I am so grateful neither of my parents were ever in a facility. Something I’d never consider. I helped my Mom take care of my Dad who was paralyzed from the neck down by a worthless drunk driver on the job so was on Workman’s Compensation. His insurance company tried to have them put in a facility to save money but my mom and I fought it tooth and nail and thankfully we won. I also took care of my Mom before she passed.
Don’t you think it’s only fair your husband has a right to know what your planning?
If I were married or living with someone I’d never allow my loved one warehoused somewhere especially without their knowledge. What about your vows, don’t they mean anything to you? How deceitful.
Your spouse deserves better, don’t you think?

Hi Jake, I agree with you and I have no intention of putting my husband with Dementia and heart problems in an institution. Actually, @shirley and I were talking about Daycare where you can leave a loved one for a couple of hours, not all day, and not the rest of their lives. Just one day of the week when we could go shopping or whatever having to take care of only ourselves. And our husbands can meet other people and socialize and play games, helping with their boredom. In other words, a win-win for everyone!
