I'm so sorry - this is the last thing your dad and you need at this late stage of his journey.

Do you know what the timescale is for the closure of the home? Is the Social Worker helping you and your mum find a new home for dad?

Hello rarkaah

I kept trying to reply to you but really don`t know what to say.

I can only hope you manage to find somewhere good for your dad before his present home closes.
