[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1598149, member: 25884"] Father turned 85 in May mom 86 in April. Born 1934 and 1933 respectively. Mom has recently been diagnosed with Parkinsons, and has dementia. Father has worn out joints and pain and was decent until last month when he had a stroke. Is in rehab now and doing pretty good considering but future plans are up in the air. Unfortunately, he is a control freak and has contributed to some of my mom's problems by not wanting her to do the exercises and such "because it hurt her" and she became less and less mobile and now cannot get around on her own. Sister and I were at our wits ends, and now that he has had the stroke, it is all on my brother as POA and for that I am glad. I miss who they were, because they (HE) have changed so much in the past 5 years or so. Grandmother was 98, g'father was 89 and his sister was 104. All had their mental faculties up to the end. Family has "old genes" on both sides, so I plan to be here until I drive my son nuts!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
