Stay the course.... try not to get into a feelings war... breathe... yes it is so very hard! Try asking him questions back rather than fielding his demands... is there a reason why (you dad) he won't listen to the what the doctors are saying? Wouldn't (you dad) he have made (me) you listen to your doctors rather than your own upset feelings in any similar circumstance? As we age, we have to make changes ... our bodys begin to wear out and changes are made to help keep us safe and sound. (Don't you dad) Doesn't he realize how much (I) you worry about him and would worry even more if...

Can you find it in yourself to reword - rephrase what is actually happening? This is definitely a time to stand back and gain a different perspective if at all possible. Throughout life we have made difficult decisions, many made not based upon short term happiness, but long term benefits. (A child screaming against having a vaccination )
