and I didn't call anyone, I don't know who would even care
I ordered a crap load of groceries for him, they came today and I had to schlep over there to put them away because he is in the hospital.
He has lousy doctors and doesn't want me to help find new ones. he has bills piling up to the sky and doesn't want help
it's supposed to snow tomorrow so my husband put his car in the garage after many attempts because his fob's battery was dead
I told him he has to accept my help on my terms. I am done I know I have said this before but this shit is ruining my life

Please do what you can do with your own physical and emotional health intact and nothing more. And no guilt. Accept dad’s choices. I wish you both peace

Yep. Caregiving has to work for both parties. It’s OK to set boundaries. You matter too!
