You know Scott you bring up a good point. We ONLY hear the nursing home horror stories and bad reviews. I do think she will have the same quality of care, and for my own part I think that her family members, the same ones who are trying so hard now to stay involved and keep her at home, will become too busy to visit her. She gets to see many of them on Sundays and holidays that simply will not go visit her in a nursing home. It's out of their way, it's not the farm, it's an unpleasant, sad place and there are no nice memories there, they're not going to eat spaghetti and catch up with anyone other than her, and they will not go just to visit someone they know has Alzheimer's. I think there are two nieces that will make weekly visits a rule. The rest will always have an excuse. There are family now who could walk to her house and don't.
I'm sorry I am just venting because it is sad.
