I am not saying much or helping much these days. Poor old C is just on a loop where every conversation comes back to this delusion about her father. I try not to mention the virus as that sets her off, but a picture of Trump in the paper got her talking about Kennedy and from there the story about her father.
It is so draining, and so sad to listen to her mourning him over and over again. Her father was a forester with knowledge of the medicinal benefits of plants, and tragically killed himself after the war. In her mind he was a doctor too who could have cured the world of every disease, made her immune to Covid 19, if he had not been shot by the Americans. However much I distract her or try to reassure her, it makes no difference.
