[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 653963, member: 17461"] This is how you put responsibility on someone else. Why can grandpa not have a paid caretaker, again? That is the only answer there is, aside from assisted living. Grandpa needs to be in assisted living. There is no other answer. He does need what he needs. You cannot provide the things he needs. He also needs to be able to respect himself, and he cannot do that if he knows his illness is destroying your life. This is such a hard set of circumstances for you. COM posts to us that worry is like making a fast getaway on a wooden horse. We have to see our situations for what they truly are. Grandpa is sick. Dad is sick. You have children who need you more than either Grandpa or Dad need you. There are other family members. If no one is willing to address the assisted living issue, that is what it is, too. You are doing the right thing in caring for your children and in getting your financial affairs and your future in order. This happened to me. Try Caffeine Free Diet Coke in the can only. The other kinds don't work. The other brands don't work. Even Prilosec had stopped working for me. So, I tried the Diet Coke. Now, I use nothing at all and am fine. Over a period of years, I healed.
