Zozee, he is only able to visit it now. It is semi remote and last Summer my son stayed with him. Dad is much weaker now and has only been over for three short visits when he can get a ride with my brother. The rest of the time he lives in my brother's basement suite. If Dad is lucky he will spend 3 weeks there mid summer. In the mean time my son id there working in the community.

Dad and I are oil and water, but my brother can work with him. Late last month my son and I emptied out a small bedroom (one of two in the house). My brother worked at clearing out junk from the tool shed, so we could put the hoses, tools, etc that were in the room where they belonged. Two old cots were removed as well. I washed the curtains (first time in 30 years), I was surprised they did not fall apart, the floor, then we put in a new bed.
