I am looking for Gujratis having any experience with Old Age home in Gujarat.
My father is unable to travel with us overseas. I am the only son.
Rightnow, Situation is desparate without any good solution. All the options that I have is either bad or worst.
He cant travel overseas, we cant stay in India for long. Medically he isnt having any illness, just weakness that comes with age.
Is there any reference for professionally managed care center - in Rajkot/Ahmedabad? Money shouldnt be an issue, I want best possible.
I have never in my dream imagine a situation like this, so completly unprepared - I dont want my father to be alone - But then at the same time I also cant stay in India. So, just looking for someone who might have faced similar situation and has good experience with workable solution with professionally managed old age care centers.
We need to have a sub dedicated to gems coming from this particular community 🤣🤣🤣
