Lucky me, I learned about the Connecticut Home Care Program for Elders run through the DSS Alternate Care Unit. Their number for information is 800-445-5394.The pamphlet I picked up reviews some basic 'facts of life' such as nursing home care costing many tens of thousands of dollars a year. When the booklet was printed it was "$60,000 and up". Those might seem like bargain prices in 2018, where monthly fees can easily top 10K in CT so that would mean an annual cost of a smooth $120,000 and Up!

This post is Basically a Summary of the Booklet, not my own insights (unless indicated and not

Before the final moments of Mother's Day go by I wanted to cheer us all on in our mothering and othering efforts, including doing some good self care and appreciation. I put a lot in the title so I can keep this short. I've actually been running a bit short on sleep and doing extra care-giving so that's part of why I won't wax poetic into the midnight hours about all things Motherhood, from women to others who nurture people, pets, critters, plants and pacha mama (Mother Earth.)

See a book by Laurie Lisle (yes a nice local person I am fortunate to know) who wrote about not being a mother
