I've been given power of attorney, both financial and health, long with my DH and dd, for both my parents. Has your dad settled in OK in the care home, grumpy?
Mum seems to have had a new release of life. She is using her scooter more and more and is able to go to the nearby shopping centre to browse. Amazing, considering she nearly died last year and before that she had urine infection after urine infection for years. She's still frail, but able to do more.
I did post about the antisocial behaviour for years from the neighbours next door. The house was boarded up for 3 months by the police. The house has been sold to a builder who lives in the road and is currently being gutted. Skip after skip of stuff. The council advised residents to form a residents association, which they have done and dad has attended meetings. As a result, people have become much friendlier and quite a few people check up on my parents. They are the oldest residents, having moved there in 1958!
