Thank you two!!!!
After a good cry... im good- pressing on! Ill be by their my parents side through this till whatever the outcome. It just gets, hard at times. The ups n downs But crying helps a lot. I cant “fix” this. And mom gets so sad about dad- 1st but also naturally thinks about possibly being alone- i told her as long as God keeps me here -you wont be.
but i can only do what im doing and thats just what im going to continue to do! This is my outlet- mayo connect- ill never get to personal but i am SO thankful as ill never stop saying - for this small place online filled with so much cyber love, support, straight talk and invaluable info. Thanks for being here:) their home is all decorated and trees up:)

@formydad I'll bet that the house looks great all decorated, and may let you lighten your emotional burden for a while. What kind of traditions has your family followed in the past?

@formydad Your parents are so very fortunate to have raised such a caring person, and also that you are geographically so close to them. My son and daughter are both very caring but neither lives close by so I am very conscious of what might happen at some point in time.
I am sorry to hear about your Mom's fall, but glad that it was not worse. Thank goodness she didn't break anything. I hope she won't be sore for too long.

I’ve been thinking again @formydad . Is it possible for you to reach out to your mother’s friends and enlist their support. They could take your mom to lunch (or anywhere) while you or your siblings watch over your dad. I think she may need a break. And it gives all of you private time to spend with your dad. Could you maybe try and see what works? Becky
