Why Are Families Not Looking After Their Elderly?
Published: October 10, 2017

It is ironic that after doing this podcast with Theo, that I found out my grandmother died at the age of 104 years old today!  She was looked after for the last 20 odd years, all her grandchildren gave her some money each month, she had a lot of grandchildren, As she passed away peacefully in her sleep in Miami, my mother, sisters and some grandchildren were around.  It was always when she was surrounded by family that she was at her happiest.

My mother told me today, the biggest gift and pleasure she had was looking after my Grandmother in her final years.  So while this podcast does come off topic a couple of times, it explains a lot about us in the nuclear family that the western world had adapted too.

I hope you like it!
