That's it, really. My mum can no longer cope with him, and he refuses to believe otherwise.
The few care homes that accept HD patients are hours away from where they live. My mum can't drive, she gets the bus to places or relies on my sister for longer journeys - I live on the opposite side of the country and I can't drive either.
It's all such a mess. My mum has done her best to care for my dad, but he's past the point of home care now.
I've spoken to the Huntington's Disease Association and they've given me a list of care homes suitable for my dad. I know we're doing the right thing, but he's so angry about it. I just want the best for BOTH of my parents.
