Hello,
Can anyone advise me: my father-in-law (newly diagnosed) is staying with us. At his own home, he is normally active (washing-up, helping with the cooking, pottering in the garden etc)
I've been trying to involve him a bit here (shelling peas, washing up a few cups etc) but, although he agrees, he seems a little reluctant, as if he's tired. Should I just leave him watching the TV or is it worth encouraging him to do a few things each day?
Thanks for any advice!
Francesca
