No, my mom has been caring for him, he is now "not quite" total care, I'm looking for a home health aide for hygiene needs right now, his deterioration physically has been very slow, mental has been very quick...he's cycling at about 3 minutes right now. Which is starting to get to my mom. Thankfully, he sleeps most of the time. I live about 45 minutes away, another sister lives slightly closer but works full time and my brother lives further away but no kids. My mom is resisting nursing home at this point so...we are at an impasse, I can't get to them more then 2-3 times a week, dealing with maintenance issues on the house and taking care of daily chores that my dad took care of just a few months ago.
