If you are finding the situation with your father so difficult, it might be a good idea to look for some support for yourself as well.
Thanks for being so judgmental Janit. Caring for our adult parents is always a challenge. Over the last 4 years, I've lost my step father to a stroke, my mother in law to cancer and continue to support my separated mother and father with their various health issues. The dementia my father is experiencing is the biggest challenges as my step mother refuses to believe there is anything wrong.
Fortunately, I had been looking ahead and figured out how to take early retirement from my teaching career at 55 so I could fully apply myself to family needs the best I can.
I'm fine Janit.
