[quote=Anonymous]Can your sisters help with the move? It absolutely sucks having to move a parent out of your home by yourself. They need to be there in person. They need to talk to your father and explain why he needs to move. They need to help with the transition and getting him settled. You should not have to do this on your own. They should be the bad cops telling him he needs to move. If they refuse to do the hard work, then they aren't being supportive IMO. Similarly, your sisters should have been paying you for the care you are giving. I don't know what the financial situation is, but you probably saved thousands of dollars each month by taking care of him at home. It's easy to say "just put them in assisted living," but you also have to prioritize funds. You don't want to run out and not be able to afford it when you really need it. Most people have no idea how much assisted living costs a month.[/quote]
