Hi, I just had my Carer's Assessment and among other info was told about a local care planning organisation which has joined forces with a firm of solicitors and they offer a free discussion of your situation.
I am really worried about how I will manage to pay for my DH's care at home and perhaps later in a CH as I'm also financially/practically/emotionally supporting my daughter who's a single parent.
Has anyone any experience of care planning and what it entails? I have to get a new LPA which involves health and welfare too, as the EPAs we got in 2005 don't include that element, so I thought I might get it all done at the same time.
I've worked hard all my life (and am still working) and would so much like to give my daughter a leg up but now, since this cruel diagnosis, I don't feel my money is my own any more...
Sorry to bleat..I'm just frightened of the future and the loss of control for both my DH and myself.o
