My Mum hasn't been fully diagnosed . She is due to get a pet scan next week. Her short term memory is totally gone. She is at home all day with my Dad who is 80 but very capable of looking after them both. We are about 4 months into our journey and Dad is usually very calm and goes with the flow. However tonight he has told me that he doesn't think he will be able to cope much longer. My mum has pains and requires pain killers but as she doesn't remember taking any tablets she would take more again and again so my dad looks after them and gives her 2 tablets when she asks but then can't give her anymore for 4 hours but she is screaming at him very agressively that she hasn't had any and he is lying to her. I work full time to support my family and can only call round in the evening for a few hours or weekends. How can I help my dad. I don't know what to do. Should I take time off work. Am I entitled to take time off to support my parents
