[quote=Anonymous]I was in the exact same situation and after my mom was hospitalized I forced her to move 5 minutes away from me in an assisted living place. That is what you should have done. Of course she didn’t want to move, and it was a pain in the ass to move her out of her house, sell her things, and sell her house to pay for assisted living but it had to be done. You can manage it from 300 miles. You have no idea how hard it is even with a parent 5 minutes away. I am 100% sure your relatives were resentful you refused to move your father close to you. You weren’t being called multiple times a day to take him to the store or appt. Own the fact that you didn’t do the right thing and stop resenting your relatives.[/quote]
