It started on Christmas Eve.
Our “we need help” moment was when we realized Grandma Herrmann couldn’t make her family-favorite perogies anymore. She was struggling with everyday tasks, from cooking to showering.
Figuring out how to pay for our beloved Grandma’s in-home care wasn’t easy. When my mom looked into a reverse mortgage, I realized the terms of the loan were predatory. Talk about a “hold on there” moment. I’m so grateful that my degree and career in finance helped us know this was not the kind of “help” we needed. Even so, it was complex to know what Grandma qualified for, and what best suited her situation.
It took us months and every minute felt overwhelming. Comparing options. Discussing them with family. Struggling with red tape. There was no one to help us make sense of things. Like realizing too late that Grandma qualified for Veterans Benefits that would have helped pay for care. But everything we know now, we use to help families like yours find their best option to pay for care.
