Guest guest Posted March 7, 2001 Report Share Posted March 7, 2001 Strong, Thanks for responding about my Dad. My brother works away all week and I live a distance from my parents so hw relys on his outings when the homemaker comes to care for Mom. Right now he is working along side of a friend fixing up his snowmobile. He also plows driveways for neighbours when it snows and that gives him a bit of a break. They travel to Vanderhoof (the town I live in) once a week and do the coffee shop thing- visit friends from bakery to deli and then shopping. It is always worse for Dad when Mom is having problems with her bowels or has infections. He not only has the pressure of worrying about how to help her but he has the messes to clean. Right now things seem not too bad. We all try to help as much as we can but unless we actually lived with them we can't do much about the kind of help they need. My youngest daughter is going to go to spend spring break at their house and wash walls and do Grandma's spring cleaning. They are looking forward to that. Sylvia in sunny Vanderhoof.
