When Jim Crabtree learned last May that his mother and wife had been shot by his father, who then committed suicide, he felt not horror, but relief.
Crabtree had been struggling to take care of his 62-year-old wife, Rita, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease six years earlier. His parents were able to watch after her each day while he was at work.

My husband and I are living with my grandmother (it has been a family house for generations, it’s paid off). She has pretty advanced macular degeneration, and can barely see….
I am wondering, are we taking advantage? If we weren’t here, how much would she have to pay someone to do the things we do? I doubt if we weren’t here that she could even stay in her home. I would also like to know the approximate value of what we are doing for my grandma for if my aunt tries to push this issue. I love my grandma very much and I hate the thought of hurting her in any way. Thank you for your feedback.
