Yes. I do; the premium is huge, but I believe that it's worth it, because it will allow us to afford several years of in-home care.
My mother spent the final 10 years of her life in a nursing home, due to rheumatoid arthritis. She would have been fine with in-home help for most of that time, but because she became indigent quickly due to the out-of-pocket cost, the only thing available to her at that point was a full-service nursing home.
