Hi, I am new to this forum, thank you for having me.
My Dad is in the late/ advanced stages of Parkinsons. He can barely walk or do much for himself, has constant delusions and needs attention and care for all his needs. My Mum is his 24/7 caregiver. We are a small family and I do what I can but have a full-time job and other family commitments. My mum is struggling and is worn out. Trying to speak with her about what needs to happen next is difficult. As a family, we need to plan ahead before a real crisis hits. Any advice would be appreciated on what our options are, and how we go about securing his (imminent) future care. Mum will fight him going into a home, and she would be resentful of others coming into their home taking over the care - at the same time she is on the edge of burn out. How do we begin to consider what is available and how do we go about getting it? Thank you x
