Dad doesn't listen to my mum. Any advice?

Whenever I ask my Dad to do something, he does it. If it's my mum he doesn't listen. My mum is a triple by pass heart patient, everyone tells her to take a rest whenever she can but she doesn't. She can be stubborn. My dad accuses my mum of nagging him when he does something he shouldn't, he's got incontinence of urine and wakes frequently at night disturbing my mum's sleep. Doctors say if she isn't careful, she will head for a stroke. She's at her wits end. Any advice?

I agree with JoAnn.
Dad is not likely to change. Mom needs her rest.
Help her rearrange her things so she can be more comfortable. If she refuses to move there isn’t much you can do.

She needs to sleep in another room.
