I don't know if anyone has seen this today -

Very sad and more about carer breakdown I think. It seems the elderly lady concerned did have capacity and was therefore able to refuse to have carers for herself to help her son cope - but how many carers in the community are in the same position? I have come across just this situation in course of my work in a hospital - it is very frustrating when someone will not accept that their carer is at breaking point.
Any thoughts?
