I decided to make this my life’s work 7 years ago when my mom began needing daily help with the basics, getting out of bed, the bathtub, as well as personal care needs. That’s what this coverage pays for. Most people contact us because they’re going through this with a loved one, usually a parent. They’re like me, suddenly put into the position of making major care decisions for mom because she’s had a stroke and can’t care for herself anymore. So, when the crisis settles down, they begin making calls to home care and assisted living facilities and ‘boom!’, they find out that mom’s care will cost $4K to $7K...per month. “But who’s going to pay for this”?....“we live in LA, mom lives in Seattle and besides, we both work and have kids to care for already!”...”doesn’t our government pay for this”?, (only after mom spends all assets including her house!). Once her estate is spent, Medicaid will take over and put mom into the nearest shared room nursing home. Everyone involved can only watch, feel anxious, angry and guilty as their parents life savings is wiped out. Believe me- it happens all the time. Our family was fortunate. My mom had a policy that paid for her care. It covered the expense of a nice apartment, good care, independence and dignity. It sounds corny but these words will become very important to us later on. And the odds are 50/50 that WE’LL be needing long term care- averaging 2 to 4 years. If I’m laid up due to a car accident or a stroke, or my wife is...or if YOU or YOURS someday needs care, SOMEONE will be paying the bills. I’ve helped hundreds of families find the right coverage that will pay those bills- and it would be my privilege to do the same for you. By now it may have occurred to you that we get this coverage for our loved ones first and for ourselves second. All the best, Stuart Paxton, CLTC 25317 Mountain Drive |
