Sounds like it's time to arrange placement for him in a supervised care facility -- it's appropriate, and would be best for you both. He will get the care he needs, with you to still oversee it, and you will get the freedom you need, without the worry about how you left him. All you have to do is explain to hisdoctor that you are no longer physically or emotionally able to care for him in your home.
