[QUOTE="simme, post: 1658533, member: 40418"] I feel so bad for you and your family. My mother had a brother with Downs. He was in his 50's when my grandmother died. He was born when the parents were old. So, everyone here was pretty old. My mother had investigated options prior and found none other than a state group home which is obviously heartbreaking. My mother was too old and frail to take him. He was physically strong and not well behaved. She had a younger brother in his 60's who took him into his home for several years before his death. Life expectancy for Downs is short. There was a will and some property and some provisions in the will that contributed financially. But still a bad situation. It had already been a bad situation since my grandmother was around 90 when she died. I wish I had some helpful answers. I will pray for strength, comfort and wisdom. [/QUOTE]
