i am currently caring for my 86 yo mom and my dad wanted her home for hospice yet is clueless about dementia and her care. so i am the main caregiver and it includes making sure my dad doens't get her up out of bed to fall again (she falls every week for past 6 or so months). he argues with her, calls her unreasonable, etc. he just doesn't understand.
