Re: not coping

Abit of everything @Sans911

I dont think pops going to agree to anything so no respite for me.
Its also dawning on me that my procedure coming up in a few months is also dental, im scared and worried that im going to end up with even more damage

Re: not coping

I'm really hearing you lil Sis @outlander. And I understand.

I think perhaps though you might have to go against your pop's wishes, and book the respite regardless.

You cannot continue the way you are. Have you told him that if you don't get a break, you might reach a point where you can't care for him at all? I'm sure you have.

Have you taken your pop to the respite place for him to take a look around? Pointed out some benefits? Got him to meet some people?

I don't know what to say about your upcoming dental treatment, but I do hear your very real concerns.
