My father went to Birimingham Southern and got a Master in Mathetics. He got to go  on the GI bill after serving during vietnam. I will always remember also a strong and so what scary person to others but he loved his children. They think he got Alzehmier, demenia, and OGD. I have taking care of him for 2 years  after he retired early from a large hospital on short notice. It has been a hard time giving up everything to take care of him and the way people treat him now like he is retarded or deaf or mute. It infuriates me. I think medicare is a bunch of crap and is useless for paying for the newest drugs that will hopefullly slow down the rapid progression in my Dad. He can not talk to were ours can understand him.

He has been abused by nursing facilitly that were to help lessen the medicine, he has been ashamed, and it is just me and it is so hard.
