Dad Wants To Put Mom in a Home
My dad called me yesterday, not realizing that I'm at a conference out of town, to tell me that he's thinking about putting my mom in a home because she's really starting to go downhill, and its too much for him. He said that he's really been stressing out and there's nowhere for him to relax and his resting pulse is 120. He doesn't want me to tell my sister, but I called her to let her know that at least mom isn't doing so well and asked her not to tell Dad that I told her. I'm thinking about trying to go for a visit out there soon to help get him the right help and make sure Mom doesn't end up somewhere bad. It is pretty overwhelming and a little devastating. I'm worried that I could lose them both and my grandmother very soon.
My presentation is tomorrow, and I'm not too stressed about it, in part because I don't think that there will be many people there. I'm taking it easy tonight - we're ordering in Thai food and I'll practice my presentation and watch a movie.
