Dear GenaBenedict, if you do find some help, I'd be glad to know where. I'm in Maine and so far haven't been able to find anything. The folks in the UK have a much more humane system, even if it's not perfect. Hang in there. Best wishes. Easterncedar

Ask a social worker about CBA Community Based Alternative. They use to have this program to keep people out of nursing homes. Must be low income. Good luck!

Hospice can help you very, very, much. All you need is for your doctor to approve you for Hospice. Believe me, they can give you lots, and lots of help. They aren't just for the dying. Jimbo

If you are prior military, you can try to get funds for a sitter. My father-in-law got $400 a week. He was not retired military, but he was a war vet in World-War-II.
