    I’ve googled this but cannot find any answers. My device is old and some of the sites won’t load or they freeze.

    Is a live in carer something that can be had in this country? A 24/7 companion - to around for showers and if going to the toilet is problem.

    It is just something I’m curious about - we’d never be able to afford it.

    My grandparents are fine but a colleague is facing the issue of care for her father and it just got me thinking.

    There are plenty of daughters and sons and grandchildren but I know from talking to people over the years that not everyone in a family steps up.

    Plus I know my Nan and no way she is letting her children wash her or help her with toilet.

    I just have too much time to think on it and was going through scenarios of the future.
