My brother, the caregiver for Mom and Dad died sitting next to his father who is 98 years old with dementia.

I am so sorry for your loss. That is so sad for you and your family. My heartfelt
condolences.

Pushing the limitations on a worn out caretaker...….caretakers are so worred about the
patient Father that they fail to look at themselves...…..this would not have been a different outcome as the seriousness of his condition was predictable..but no doctor
he had three for a year thinking charley was stressed...….

Thankyou to everyone my Brother the caretaker was 69years old and my point was due to Dads unfortunate inability to see he is somewhat blind as well, as Charley had a seizure or the brain absesses were impacting him for hours, Dad was not able to help
charley get to a phone and he was cognitively impaired...sad..so I arrived by accident and took him to Emergency where the MRI discovered serious Brain Absesses..he passed the following few days after never recovering...but I would say this caretaker
was tired and stressed and DAd should have been in 24 hour care by outsiders...

I’m very sorry for your loss and hope a new care plan for your parents can be put together quickly. I can’t imagine the shock of it all

Thoughts and prayers your way....how old was your brother?

Wake up call for us all.....lets see the doctor ourselves someday!!

That was a terrible thing to happen - poor brother. Hopefully Dad did not realize what had happened. Deepest sympathies to you and family.

Oh my gosh! What a tremendous shock!

Oh good LORD.

Are you all right? Can we help?
