Dad has alzheimer.
Mom has cancer.
Neither of them can take care of them on their own anymore.
The burden falls on us, their devoted kids.
Of course, we are more than ready to lend a helping hand, and more than that.
It's a chance to return a little bit of the kindness and love that our parents bestowed upon us all of our lives. A chance to put to practice the commandment "Honour Thy Father and Thy Mother".
But it pains us to no end to see our parents slowly deteriorating, suffering terribly, and with no ability to help, other than to ease the pain a little.
