Call your area council on ageing. Also, if she is near terminal, talk to your doctor about hospice care. Yes, keeping her at home will be terribly difficult and stressful but you can always transfer her to a nursing home if/when you wear out. You will certainly need caregiving assistance at home if you are self pay. Medicaide won't pay for it unless it's hospice. Good luck. You are embarking on a very difficult but satisfying journey. Your heart will tell you what is best. Keep up with support groups, research, research, research and keep asking questions.

You will need a hospital bed AND a hoyer lift if she can't walk. Leave her where she is, trying to do this all at home will kill you. People who think they can do all that are burned out within a month.
