Leave his home of almost 30 years?
Yeah, what army is going to help me do that. My Dad still drives! He is the most determined individual I have ever met. He can barely drink water without choking, but he still tries to do things like anyone else. It takes him a 100x's longer, but he still tries. They did a biopsy on his bladder on Monday, had to go back in on Friday to stop the bleeding. He was supposed to be in the hospital for 2 days. He came home on Saturday and was out and about on Sunday. This is a man who does exactly what he wants. He's mind is still good and please tell me what I would do if I bring my Dad to my house and he decides to kill himself? How will I feel then? I can not be in a room with him 24/7.
I know there are no easy answers and I pray for guidance and his safety everyday. I have a 12 year old son and a husband. I'm scared of this woman! I have no idea what she is capable of, but pushing a disabled man down and kicking him gives me a glimpse and that was because he made a remark that she didn't like. I wouldn't put anything past her and I refuse to put my Dad under more mental stress. The stress of taking him from his home would be unbereable to him at this point.
I know that everyone is being very supportive, but this is not as cut and dry as you might think. I'm also divorced and my ex would love to here that my son could be in danager because I have moved my Dad in with me and his wife could pose any kind of threat to my son. I won't put my son in that kind of danger. My Dad is chosing for himself. I have to make that choice for my son. I don't think that would ever happen, but when you are dealing with someone like her, you don't know what could happen.
