Rod does just about everything around here right now....he does 98% of everything for Dad. I do manage to get up and walk to the car 4 days a week to take him to the Senior Center but they come out to the car to get him. Rod picks him up then.
So we are finding a way. Rod does all the tending to Dad and insists that I don't get up. So I try to do as the Dr told me to do.
I told Dad he was going to have to help take care of ME for awhile. LOL
In the meantime, Dad has done enough funny stuff to keep us laughing, that's for sure. I have the list here in front of me on my desk.
Let me write just a few short ones just for kicks...
*I made Dad an appt for a massage...I said "She sure is pretty, Dad."
Dad says,"A pretty girl don't do me any good anymore."
*I had collected a spider in a jar with her egg sac. I could have sworn I saw the babies starting to come out....and then realized I did not. I said to Dad, "I must be seeing things." Dad's reply, "Why not, I DO!"
*This last one really isn't about Dad. It's about the other comedic in the house, Rod. I had gone out with my girlfriends to dinner one evening and Dad and Rod stayed home. That was the night that Dad was having his run of diaherra, no pun intended there. lol
We [my girlfriends} were seated to a nice evening meal and I had picked up my cell phone and noticed Rod had tried to call me but I didn't hear it. So I called him back. He said all was fine now but he couldn't find the Depends so he fixed something up. {Oh lord, I thought} I didn't ask any questions either.
I didn't think anything about it until I got home and nearly wet my pants laughing when I had seen what Rod had rigged up. He left an extra pair for the next time on the bathroom counter. {not near as bad as the clothes pole he rigged up but damn near close, inside joke to some.} Photo attached below. Just make sure you don't have anything to drink in your mouth when you look.
