My dad is in his early 90s and has symptoms of early stage dementia, including short-term memory loss and difficulty with problem solving. My mom died five years ago and Dad still lives alone in their big house. He absolutely refuses to move. And he has refused to let home care workers into his house. He manages okay with daily living, like getting groceries and eating, but forgets to take his meds, Us children all live in different cities and can’t care for him on a daily basis.
We do not have guardianship over Dad, but even if we did, we would have to physically drag him out of that house. And I mean he would literally fight us and even though he is old, he is still strong enough that someone could get hurt. And at the care facility they would have to physically restrain him to keep him there. It would be ugly and a terrible end to the life of someone who was a good person. He would end his final years like a criminal.
what do I do? What have others done in this situation?

I read the articles that say that most caregiving by siblings is done by daughters. I only have 2 sons, and they have been considerate, helpful and loving. About the only thing they can't do (too uncomfortable) is helping me shower.
We're going to have to move closer to at least one of them, because neither can travel x-country when I need help. They are working together to find a place suitable to our needs.
As far as I know, there is no sibling rivalry other than the game they have been playing for 50 years, which is "Mom loves me best".
I love them both equally and am happy that we'll be able to see more of them and their kids when we move.

Cat,

I just looked at the rolling cane. Interesting design. The Amazon vendor has no reviews for the product. Not even one! That’s telling something about the product.

I just came across it while looking at rollators&felt the need to share. Lol

I just looked up the cane on Amazon. Interesting design and concept. I was hoping to read some comments from actual users but there are none so far. Probably a good fit for someone only needing a little help walking/balancing before graduating to a regular walker.

I can see how it could be disastrous if you needed it to be supportive and stationary, but instead it kept rolling and causing you to lose balance.

Catskie - one of the things I love about this site is the interesting things I learn from other posters. I never knew there was such a thing, and I have no clue why anyone would think it was a good idea🤔

Anyone seen the DrWhitzard 3 wheel adjustable cane? Looks like an accident waiting to happen.

Girl Scouts were originally founded as Girl Guides in the US by Juliet Gordon Lowe. Then at some point, Girl Guides name in the US changed to Girl Scouts. So they are the same thing. But, it sounds like the cookie varieties in Canada and the U.S. May be different.

I checked, all Sees Easter candy is sold out.

I have been a few weeks off from every holiday these past few years.

So, Happy Mother's Day early!

I remember stuff.
In previous years, when Ms. Madge was posting, I was buying Sees Candy chocolate eggs. It was a tradition! Then, it was all gone, and very expensive.

This year, I planned to wait it out until after Easter, taking a page out of Cwillie's play book. 50% off! I may have missed the sales.

I ran across some sales at Big Lots, but could not bring myself to buy it when I was there.

If this discussion did not come up again, I could have forgotten my traditional chocolate egg pursuit, with the goal of 1/2 off.

Now, I am getting obsessed! Last time I shopped the Sees candy eggs, I bought too much, my dH still had some hoarded a year later.

I want quality, fresh, individually wrapped chocolate, at a discount. Just a little bit. I am envious of you all who can find discounts to make yourselves sick.
Lol.

Where's mine?
