Hi
Dad is 80 and has the above health problems including neutrapenia (not sure I have spelt that right) However he is in considerable pain with his knee it is badly arthritic and all the creams and injections no longer work. I took him to the doctors and they increased his pain patch to highest strength and sending him to surgeon re knee replacement.
He has had two operations previously(local anesthetic) and suffered badly with dellerium but the hospital has sent him home, he lives alone, 10 mile from me and he is blind.
Has anyone had experience/advice?
Dad has not been able to get a bath or shower for 2.5 years, he is unable to cook for himself, cannot organise ect.
Please do not point me to SS as Dad seems too stubborn for their liking.
Thank you
Turmoil
Thank you
