[quote=Anonymous]This happened with my parents. The kids had to step in and tell my mother (who was the difficult one who needed care that my father was performing but was slowly killing him) that the gig was up. He could no longer take care of her. She was not happy about it but we insisted. Absolutely zero regrets. He is operating from a place of fear and deserves empathy. However, he doesn't get to ruin your mother's life or kill her early. And also, your mother isn't properly caring for him, even if she has every good intention. It's not appropriate. A couple other things...you don't make it clear if your mom is going with him to wherever he needs to go or he's just going? Why a nurse to help with toileting? Are you just using the wrong term? This does not require a nurse so I hope you're not paying a nurse.[/quote]
