Caring for my dad Member since November 05, 2007Recently lost my mother in 2009 to Alzheimer's. I was very close to my mom and became even closer to her as the disease progressed. Her death left a big hole in my heart. Currently, I am taking care of my father who has mild to moderate Alzheimer's. The difference this time is that I was never that close to my dad like I was with mom. So I just don't feel like caring for him like I did my mom. I act as the dutyful daughter and I feel sorry that he has Alzheimer's, but that's it. This round with the disease is much harder for me.
