I'm have relatives in the elder care industry and I've been a caregiver myself. This options presented here are laughable.

Modern medicine has extended lifetimes so that people spend an extraordinary amount of their lives in a state where they are miserable and helpless. The less fortunate among us do not have the resources or the options to accommodate them and so spend years in desperation.

The effect of this list is to inspire guilt and feed despair in people beyond the end of their rope: some you're somehow not making it work, while apparently others are. You must be a bad person.
