We are now having to wait again probably for 20 weeks, according to the Court of Protection, before we might be able to move Dad closer to us!
We had even thought of 'Dadnapping' him away from his present home but have been advised against that.........that is how desperate we feel about the way this situation is going!
At the last visit Dad looked so frail just sitting in a chair on his own, languishing away before our very eyes. As it was a sunny day we took him out in the car for a drive and he really came to life again. It seems almost cruel to leave him in his present CH with hardly any visitors but it looks like we just have to wait while things go through the system.
Our last hope is to try and convince BIL again about moving him closer to family who can visit him on an almost daily basis.If he won't change his mind Dad will be condemned to a solitary existence with no regular visitors where he is and we will have to wait the 20 weeks while the COP make a decision and just hope he doesn't deteriorate too much.
We are left feeling absolutely distraught and so depressed about not being able to do anything
