Scenario

Peter and Mary were happily married for 52 years and had children and grandchildren. Peter was a healthcare professor while Mary was a hospice nurse. They both retired at age 65 years and were living happily. However, they remain active by working at Walmart as greeters and members of the conflict resolution team.

Peter observed that Mary had developed some memory issues at age 78 years as she keeps forgetting dates, names of days in the week, even the names of their grandchildren. The couple decided to see a gerontologist who concluded that Mary's language skills and mental abilities have significantly diminished after a series of neuropsychological tests. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Don became the caregiver at home even though he was deteriorating in age too. Recently, he developed knee problems coupled with pain in different parts of his body. 

Peter hired a home health aide to assist. However, Mary's problems became severe, and he had to decide. Peter was no longer able to take care of Mary as his condition worsen too. He need help, too, because he was unable to do things for himself currently. The retirement funds are dwindling fast and would need assistance from family members and friends.
