My dad and his wife moved a couple of hours away from where I and rest of his family live, to have the lifestyle and big house that they wanted.
Dad has since developed Parkinson's which is now declining and he has started having regular falls. Step mum feels he can't be left alone any more.
She has asked if he can come and stay with me "for a few days every now and then" as she wants a few days off.
My situation is I work full time and have two children and we're live in a 3-bed house. She's asked whether my children can bunk up when he stays. I'm already feeling stretched with demanding work and family life as is.
I now feel very guilty and ashamed for not wanting to regularly welcome DF in our home, but I know it won't with around my family.
I've asked if they can get some assistance at home, but he apparently isn't ready for this.
Please can anyone help me with experiences, thoughts... I'm feeling so confused and guilty.
