My Mum comes from a generation that just gets on with things, no matter how hard they become. I've also followed this example for many years.
I'm hoping that, as things have progressed further, my Mum is now finally ready to take the step toward accepting assistance with caring for my Father.
Tomorrow, I will be visiting an organisation that can offer advice and information.
If there is somewhere that we can attend, I don't know if my Father will stay somewhere without my Mum being with him. It's ironic really. For many years, he would arrive home, eat, get changed and go straight out. He didn't spend much time at home with my Mum. Now, he panics if she isn't there all the time.
I hope that I can give my Mum a break somehow. She needs some space for herself. And, I need to be able to rebuild my life without worrying or feeling guilty.
