Where are we most independent as we age?
This week we turn independence upside down.  We think we're independent when we can live and receive care in our homes, but that forces our family to reshape their lives to support our progressing needs.  Then families feel really bad when they realize they can't do it - they never knew how much work and time it takes. So many parents beg their children to never "put" them somewhere.  Or when the subject comes up, they exclaim,  "I'm not ready yet!" But then, after they do move to Senior Living, the new exclamation becomes "OMG, why didn't I move her sooner?"   Senior Living communities are evolving to meet Baby Boomer demands for comfort and activities.  Today, the good ones can be considered Resorts with Help. The better ones, with the best employees who can nurture our well-being and create a great culture cost more than others.   The median cost for assisted living today across the country is $75,000 annually and is expected to increase to over $200,000 per year in 20 years.   That's median, so the resort like places will cost more.   We need to prepare today so we can choose where we can live later.
