Like Izzy, I hadn't heard of Liz Jones before, but I sometimes read the Mail Online in the morning and the article caught my attention. On reading it, I was most put off by her statement that she didn't want her Mum living with her because Mum's wheelchair was leaving marks on the floors. I also wondered how she managed to get funding for full-time live in care and suspect that, actually, she's paying the bills herself.
I thought it was interesting, though in that she was so graphic and expressed her inability to cope with the nitty gritty of care. I agree with TinaT "I'm glad she did go into such detail. These details comprise the sum of what her mother's life has been for some considerable time. The truth of living in this way is not pleasant. It is heart-breaking."
If nothing else, I was hoping the article would open up the debate a bit so those of us who can't manage physical care can talk about it. I do however suspect that, given the nature of this journalist (thanks for the link Izzy), it won't do any good at all.
