[quote=Anonymous]Your mom is really going through hell right now, I don't know that you really appreciate just how bad things are for her. Your dad is a 24/7 overwhelming responsibility for her. And I think you should be concerned for your mom. In some ways it's good that your dad is bedridden now since he isn't up at night wandering, turning the stove on, leaving the house. But the physical care of him has got to be taking a toll on your mom. Nursing homes are horribly expensive, is she worried that they would have to spend down too much to put him in a nursing home? You need to find out. As far as hosting nice dinners go....that is just so low on the list right now that I'm shocked that she even tried to do it. Next time, you can host the dinner at your place (or whoever's place) and hire a nurse to stay with your dad. Your mom can even help cook if that is a comforting thing for her to do. I'm sorry your family is going through this.[/quote]
