[quote=Anonymous]OP, I can understand why this is very difficult for you. Since your mother is not doing anything to make it less difficult, what I'm wondering is if there is anything else YOU can do to ease the burden. For instance, is it a possibility to move your father close to you, since he doesn't even have a single friend or family member where he is right now? Then you would not have to take off several days at a time to assist him but could take a few hours as needed and still have time each day with your own family. It would be easier to arrange for part-time caregivers for him and keep an eye on him on a regular basis. Plus, you and your family would have more time with him overall, in whatever limited time he has left. If he is going to be declining, it seems he's going to need more of your time and support going forward, and this would be much easier on all of you if he lives nearby.[/quote]
