[quote=Anonymous]“It’s ok to lie” is the best advice given to me when my mother was in a similar situation. She never admitted out loud she had Alzheimer’s so when it reached a point where she could no longer live safely at home (we had two home caregiver steal money, so sad) we told her she was just visiting us for a few days and moved her in to our house. In your Dad’s situation I’m not sure where the lie would fit but if there is a point where you reassure him of one thing while doing another (for his best interest) it’s ok. [/quote]
