Everyone else though just kind of visited when it was convenient for them and drifted away after it was realized how long it would take for him to actually recover. =/ Connie,

What happened to the rest of the family? Did they all do a disappearing act on you? It takes a lot longer for elderly people to recover from any type of surgery due to the anesthesia. I don't know if he's usually cranky or forgetful but if he wasn't before this is due to a lot of factors including the surgery. If he was before, it'll be worse...but only for a while. You need a break girlfriend! It’s really tough being a caregiver and I give you a lot of credit for doing it. What happened to the rest of the family? Did they all do a disappearing act on you?

He can't expect that of you. That’s so not fair for him to expect you to be there 24/7 just waiting for his every command. He can’t expect that of you.

It's rough sometimes taking care of a person. We went through the same with my grandfather as he was getting on in live. Luckily we were a large family and took turns helping out. But it was rough on him as well as he was a very independent person and had a hard time with someone taking care of him so to speak. Catch your breath, have your smoke and enjoy, I sure wish my grandfather was still here to enjoy is great grand children now as I know he'd of loved them. Joana, I certainly feel for you.
