Listen to this Story

Howard Davis has a contract with his mother: If she moves in with him, he will take care of her; however, she is obligated to pay for her own room and board. His mother, Dixie, is 70 years old and is in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. This type of contract may sound harsh, but it is emerging as a trend in elder care. Bill talks with Howard about his decision.
