I feel bad that my story about my dad's visit upset my sister. She said she couldn't sleep. She's had so many health issues and doggy concerns lately. She told me that she needs to know. I'm glad she shared my story with my brother. Both are strong people. Considering what my sister has been through these last almost two years it amazes me how strong she is. My brother lives with dad and sis lives within walking distance of him. I'm only a 35 minute drive away, but it seems like much more of a distance.

It is a sad time when you reach an age and situation when you and your siblings need to intervene in a parent's life.

I can't get it out of my mind how unwell, weak, and vulnerable my dad looks. My siblings and I don't know exactly what and when to do. I mean, we sort of do, but it's difficult.
