Oh I am so sorry that you are having such a hard time. Have you tried to contact any social services in your area? Do you know how to access this information? If you have Medicare you can call them, a church, or even a local hospital. I would also think that telling your doctor and your father's doctor.
Some of us are on our own in terrible times. At the beginning of my husband's journey, I was scared to death of this but also didn't want to inconvenience my sister or neighbor. But I've stopped that. I need help! You need help! Ask for it anywhere you can get it. If you keep asking enough places and people word will get out and you will probably wind up getting calls. But you have to go after it!
Can you do this? Have you done it?
