Family getting on

May 29th, 2006 at 04:57 pm

Last night I rang my brother as he and sis are no longer on speaking terms. I listened to his side of wanting to take care of dad. I see where he is coming from but he is so goshdarn high handed. Anyone who disagrees with him he calls an idiot. Well, dad has a hair trigger temper too, which is why I don't think it would work for bro to look after him. They always did quarrel about everything.

But last night bro kept his temper and even surprised me by suggesting my travel expenses to see dad should be paid for out of dad's funds. I would like to see dad as much as possible before dementia sets in. Already he struggles to remember gkids. Sometimes I think death would be kinder.

    You are on such a difficult path. You won't regret visiting your dad as often as you are able, while you both can enjoy the visits. Best wishes to you and your family.

    Thanks, guys for your kind thoughts. Sadly, dad has just had another stroke, so i don't know how long he'll last.
