[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you ask them to help?[/quote] No, I didn't literally ask for help, but I made it clear to them how hard it was for my Dad and for me. Some relatives were understanding but didn't offer practical help, others set boundaries from the start and said they could do x but not y or z. In the end, the person who offered most help was a neighbor. I would also like to say that some relatives found my Dad quite 'difficult' or 'needy', but I think that was because of his change in behaviour after he'd had a series of mini strokes (TIAs).
