[quote=Anonymous]I would not argue over semantics.

My dad was also in denial. He would make excuses, wouldn't tell us things etc. It was infuriating and I was so worried all the time, but I know that it was a horrible time for him too. This is a terrible disease and both your parents are struggling right now. I understand that you want to help as best you can but honestly in a situation like this, you may have to let it hit rock bottom, because I assure you, it will hit rock bottom. Your mom is an adult, unless you think she has cognitive decline as well, meet her where she is. There were years of mini fires and big fires before shit hit the fan and my mom was put into nursing home care. I wish I could sugar coat it, but this is a long, terrible road.

Both my parents are passed now. I have some big regrets when it comes to my mom and her care but I'm also not sure what I could have done differently because we were all just doing our best with the crap hand we were dealt. I'm sorry, OP. [/quote]
