Mr. + Mrs. R are both in their mid-70’s, active, and independent. Mr. R suffers from a massive stroke one night at dinner and is rushed to the hospital. He now has left hemiplegia and expressive aphasia. He is wheelchair bound and needs assistance of two people to transfer from one surface to another. Mrs. R would like to take him home, but realizes that she is unable to care for him herself. Their children live fairly close but each has families of their own. They both have state pensions and social security and would like to be as close as possible to each other so they can see each other every day. Mrs. R does not want to give up her independence but is willing to sell the house.
