in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

I have given in to the fact that I need help. So, I'll be meeting with a home health organization hopefully next week.

For those who have not reached this point, I have done all I can, to the point of jeopardizing my health. If you are at this stage, please understand that you have done nothing wrong.

What good are you to your loved one, if your health fails?

    I'm so sorry, do you want to tell us about what's going on? You must be feeling pretty terrible.

    Good for you, @cwb49 If you have traditional Medicare, have you looked into the GUIDE Program?

    https://www.cms.gov/priorities/innovation/innovation-models/guide Medicare might pay for a small portion of those home health services. It is a process to enroll, but it could save you a little money.

    I hope everything works out for you.
