in Caring for a Parent
Mum is declining pretty fast yet the problem is my dad who won’t accept it and is pushing her to be her old self, he thinks he can stop this. They are 90 and 89 respectfully. She is at the stage of not being able to dress herself or shower herself yet he insists they go out and live a normal life. Dad says she is just having a bad day but he can handle her, etc. how do I help my dad see reality and not push her?
By the way I am so glad to have found this site, thank you for having this help out here.
