Ugh. So hard. I saw similar things with my grandfather, but I was in my twenties and wrapped up in my own life. So there was some distance there between me and the situation that took the sting away. Plus, watching a parent suffer is so much worse.
I am so sorry your dad is going through this, and for the mix of emotions you feel as a result. The mind is so complex. Even if he can’t express it, I am sure there are places within his mind that still hold his memories and love for you.
It hasn't been pleasant I'll be honest. He has declined since 2004 when my mum passed away (cancer) and it's been a pretty poor scene to watch. Of course for that time I've been busy taking care of him, making sure he is safe, comfortable and engaged. Now though, the decline is rapid and it's starting to hit home.
We'll be ok of course, it's part of life - Doesn't make it any easier to deal with though I guess.
Thanks for your comment. I really appreciate it and hope things are well with you, or as well as possible. :)
