I'm not sure about whether my poor dad is nearing the end or not, so please feel free to tell me either way.
He is in a nursing home with vascular dementia, and spends most of his day asleep. He has not eaten for a week, but still drinks a little, but not very much. He was skin and bone before the not eating, so doesn't have much in the way of reserves. The nursing home are doing what they can to encourage him to eat, but he refuses everything and gets quite agitated if they persist, and are going to bring in a dietician in a week or so to see if they can help. I just think that he's had enough and wants to go.
I so so want his suffering to be over. He is so tiny and frail, just like a little bird. This horrible, horrible disease. And in the meantime my siblings don't visit and just want their inheritance.
Sorry, having a really bad day, hope that you all understand.
