My dad has been in bad health for several years now. He is 80, and he cannot take much more.He was just released from the hospital, and placed in hospice. He has Alzheimer's and a really bad heart. Dad could last for awhile yet, but the Cardiologists told Mom his heart could stop at any time. His heart just has ... done all it can do. They told her that they haven given him all the meds possible & nothing is really working. We may have months.. days.. or hours. We simply don't know. I have cried until I can't cry...  I   just want one more visit. I live 12 hours away &  cannot pay for 2 trips home.  I want to see my dad one more time...... God help me.... I can't do this alone.

I'll be saying a prayer for your Dad (and for you too). I hope you can go home again.
