You got it. My mom died when I was 16, saw my real father once. I didn’t have to deal with aging parents. I saw my wife do it, was hard on her.

Had my brother stay here with him this morning because it was one of the few days that everyone had to be gone for a while. think my brother got a little dose of what we go through every day, dad was asking if John had died, told him no he was here with you this morning.

You got it Roger. Reckon he had hell with you too.
After he's gone you'll think back and wonder why you didnt do more.
Its life.

Your doing the right thing man. It is hard dealing with the elderly and infirm. And games they play if that is happening.
Many of us have BTDT on here. So alot of us know what you are probably going thru.
Don't lose your composure with him. He probably wont remember. But you will. And ya cant change what might be said. Sometimes the best approach with the elderly is appeasement to let them " win". It's hard going that route but it advoids ugly build up of resentment and words that cant be taken back.
Just try to do your best and bite your tongue if matters are happening like that.
I wish you the best. You dad also.

Sorry, Roger. Prayer up for you. And your dad.
Don't be the darkness.
