I bet some Ron Jeremy has more sense then your average person these days. 🙂
Did you hear about the Post article from a woman bragging about divorcing her hubby because his cancer was bringing her down?
What's what say about their target audience?? Like, do they expect readers will be outrageously offended and keep reading because they're masochists?. Or do they expect them to nod their head in agreement, thinking they'd totally leave the selfish prick who won't stop whining about dying?
Pretty sure Ron Jeremy is a drug pusher, either that or age has worn him down. He's not the best advocate for reason and if someone had cancer married to him, who would want to stay with him?
However, Cancer treatments can be invasive and expensive; it would take a lot out of anyone having to either be the patient or be there to support a sickly dying person.
That is why most people would rather leave their parents in the care of a seniors home, because they cant be bothered.

Well.. yeah, can't argue with any of that. Seen enough family taken by cancer, never lasted five years or more, only months to a year max. A friend of the family does have it in someplace related to kidney's or somewhere, but it's kept in check and he'd rather live with the cancer instead of the dialysis bag.
The woman is still awful though. If for no other reason than for daring to get upset that no one told her he passed away.
If you cared so much maybe you should have stuck around to find out for yourself, why expect others to tell you about it after you'd moved on and left him a shambles?

I would never leave my loved ones at the mercy of some specialized home, to many horror stories.

Both my grandfather's felt the same. One grandmother passes away in her home, the other was forced into a home when age caught up to my other grandfather.
I tell you from experience, whatever horror stories you heard are probaby right, and its probably even worse than you can imagine. I literally saw a poor elderly man slip out of his wheelchair and wait on his knees for a half hour because the nurses were too busy chatting. The place was squalor and neglect personified.

Some of those personal support workers should be charged, but at the end of the day it's the families fault for negotiating a loved one.
