Dad

Dad isn't liking the nursing home.  He wants to go home.  Mom said he looked worse tonight than he ever did.  I went there Sunday and had to lie about where I was going to be able to leave.  He wanted me to  "take him back to the place they were staying before."  I feel like I'm chopping years of his life for my own benefit.  So now what do I do.  If he's home, I'm not being fair to my family.  I know one thing, Alicia will never be going through this!

That is tough. I remember when Grandma Fern had to put Grandpa in a nursing home. She called me and cried.
I'll be thinking of you.
