Thanks so very much for your kind words and advice. Physically, he is able to toilet, feed and dress himself. He is not ready for hospice yet.
His mental state is another story. He has a form of dementia which causes aberrant/episodic sexual behavior. In other words, he kept “hitting on” the little old ladies in his facility. He denies it, of course, and cannot remember anything about it, which is why he can no longer stay at those facilities. I totally understand the reason that he had to leave.
I love him dearly and will keep him here as long as I can.
Dad joined the 7th Cavalry in Fort Bliss, Texas. He knew how to ride horses. After that, he went into the Army/ Air Corps. WWII, served at Iwo Jima, and then to Germany during the Berlin Airlift. He has a remarkable history and remains a real patriot to this day. I treasure his service to our country and his great fatherhood.
