I have read a few posts on here where PWD’s have asked their family/loved ones to promise not to put them in a care home. And then they feel so guilty if they have to break that promise.
Shortly after diagnosis my hubby asked me the same thing. It nearly broke my heart, but the promise I made was to look after him as long as I was physically and mentally able. He accepted this and has even talked about how a care home might be necessary in some dim and distant future.
Hopefully this might be of some use to others.
