[quote=Anonymous] There is no normal, but what you describe is common. I'm an only child living in the US with parents in Europe and my father is starting to decline cognitively. So you have all my sympathy. I'm afraid I might have to move back home to look after him and my disabled mother, and I foresee a lot of problems with that, notably that my labor will go completely unrecognized by everyone and that my wants and needs will go completely unmet. Don't dwell too much on the past, OP. I'm not sure anything your relatives could have done would have significantly improved your father's quality of life. [/quote]
