| Abstract: | Ann Mackay's article highlights the costs involved in running a care home. This article tells the other side of the story from the perspective of the author's mother - who changed from an independent retiree to a dependent resident in a nursing home - and illustrates the true cost of living when you can no longer look after yourself. |
