I am just on the verge of tears. He's the only parent I've ever known.

He's not doing good, but I think it's something that he can prevent. He stopped dialysis a few months ago, against everyone's wishes. He was hospitalized because he had another bad stroke, he had an aneurysm about six years ago.

For the past few weeks, he has had zero energy. He can barely get up to use the bathroom. I call him and he can barely talk, sounds so exhausted. He missed his neph appointment yesterday, said he scheduled another one for next week. but he's just not doing good. Why is he so drained? I don't know.

I just can't help but wonder if he just wants to go ya know?


Thanks for letting me vent. It's very frustrating and heartbreaking for me.
