[quote=Anonymous]Op here: Only looking back do I realize that probably the dental issues as well as his hearing problems started way back when he was still young. Admittedly he is pretty helpless, and my late mother was a difficult person to deal with, so maybe I couldn’t even have done anything. However if parents are open to your help in scheduling and paying their copays, it may be saving you a lot of money and effort down the road. Again, it’s great when parents are independent and capable, but so many get either beat up by life or cognitively declined fairly early! I had no idea tbh. As for compassion, I might be using the wrong word, but I used to become worried about him when he complained of minor issues. Now I try not to, out of self preservation. It doesn’t mean I am cruel and I dismiss his big concerns . [/quote]
