[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 708435, member: 18958"] There are so many logical steps somebody could take, like Uber. Uber is so cheap. I have not used it and I recognize most people use an app on their phone but I would guess you can call them, too. But for CQ this is not about finding solutions it is about absolute control I think. She seems so brittle and thereby fragile she allows no flexibility at all in the way she sees others, life, the world. I am not justifying or forgiving her, but I am wondering if SHE has some cognitive impairment, too. I am wondering about HER capacity. My sister is kind of like her. The extreme control, self-serving always, and the ruthlessness to meet her own goals. Lovely. (Imagine dealing with this as my mother was dying. She got mad and refused to speak to my mother or I for a year and never again did. And then defined it all as my fault. The whole thing. And she MY victim.) As far as your father's suffering: please recognize (very, very hard and almost impossible, it was, for me) that he is not suffering, in equal measure to his decline. To more clearly put it his suffering is less as his capacity is less. Who suffers the most is us. [/QUOTE]
