I think that you need to provide more information if you really want help with this.

Your responses are not very nice when people have taken time to answer you.

Provide information as to what the complications are or make the trip and teach both of them how to use a microwave or toaster oven.

My husband gets Meals on Wheels and we love the food and the service. I am fully capable of cooking and live in the home as his fulltime caregiver. We are eligible under respite care for me, and his disability prevents him from using a microwave or stove; and because we can donate money to help cover the cost, eligibility is not an issue. You can donate as much or as little as you can afford. you really should reapply...that one midday meal has really helped keep him healthy.

First, why can’t your dad or sister prepare a meal? Is there a good reason for that? Is there any reason why one them can’t throw a frozen TV dinner in the microwave? I mean that’s better than going hungry right? I’m just curious why in a household with 2 adults, you are stuck trying to figure out how to get your dad fed.

Maybe you can sign him up for meals on wheels? There are also lots of food delivery services like grub hub and Uber eats, you can order food from a fast food restaurant or a sit-down restaurant and have it delivered to your dad. Do your dad or sister belong to a church? The church may have volunteers who can provide a few meals a week. Good luck!
