I'm starting to wonder if this with my dad will ever end. As I mentioned before he has end stage COPD and I believe he attempts to use this as weapon. I'm not bashing his affliction or anything about it. But as I've mentioned before he's a bit of a hypochondriac and a drama queen whenever he doesn't feel well. But right on que I'm about ready to go to bed and he starts with that he can't breathe.
Yes, he can breathe, he can't breathe well. You ask him if he wants to go to the hospital, No is the response. He thinks if he goes to the hospital he's not coming back. Well either its not as bad as he's making it sound or he just doesn't want to go. I don't know what to do for him anymore. He's just a miserable person and this is endless. I know the VA wants to arrange for hospice to come in and help him out, hopefully he will agree this time. Does it ever end? I feel like my brother and I are trapped and are being punished for something and can't get on with our own lives because of this with my dad. |

So Sorry things are being so hard also! Please Do not give up!
  Hugs. It seems like things are being rather difficult right now. If he does have difficultu breathing then i'd say bringing him to the hospital may simply be the Best solution. Hopefully it's nothing too serious also. Do try your best and do not be ahsamed to ask for Help to other Family members and Friends. Unfortunately i can't tell when this will end but i can only ask you to Resist. i think it is wonderful that you're taking care of your dad. i Hope things will improve really soon for everyone. Love. Stay Safe. Sending many Safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @BorisTheAnimal, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!
