Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Sue, Welcome. I'm sorry for the reason, though. Yes, your mother and brother have the worst of the caregiving, but it is good that you and your sister can visit. I have seen my husband deteriorate dreadfully, rapidly, and then recover to a better state for awhile. Early-midsummer I thought we were on the final leg, but he is doing quite well again now. I call it the roller coaster. That your dad would go to a nursing home is certain to lighten your mother's " hands on " caregiving, but she will continue as his caregiver as she monitors the NH situation. I hope they are knowledgeable about this dreadful disease. Again, welcome. Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
