We have considered this but it's complicated and he really needs 24 hour care. He is giving up and hasnt ate or drank water since Sat. when we drove him to visit his 88 YO sister who still is sharp as a tack and lives alone. We suspect he's had another small stroke. I dont think he'll last much longer. We r taking him to the ER today and if they cant put him in a rehab to get him eating and moving, we'll go to a Home next. He doesnt get up from his chair all day other than to use the bathroom and he uses a walker because of his weakness. He almost cant get up from a chair.How about finding some local help, in the area, maybe a older person from a church needing part time help,ask a minister, a stay at home mom looking for a few extra dollars, a LPN ...someone to stop by five days a week or so, take care ..basic food ...help out...you checking in weekends.
My prayers are with you and your parents.
This is just rearranging the furniture on the Titanic.
