[quote=Anonymous]It is like with little kids - it is time that matters. They want you there. He is likely lonely. My grandmother (who is like my mother) is very similar to your father. I only visit once a week as well but I try and take her out so she has different stimulation, we do things together so we aren't having the same tired conversations. I call during the week just to day hi. We have very short phone conversations but at least she knows I thought of her. I mail her post cards now and then as she loves getting mail. I try and bring fresh flowers every week so there is a different smell/look to the room. what they want is your time, you to be there with them. If you can't be then leave reminders. [/quote]
