I gave up everything, all dreams and hopes to move back home to take care of my dad till his final days. At the beginning of the caregiving days, physical tiring but fulfilling because he was my dad. The mental struggle on the other hand was horrible while I still need to figure out a way to make a living

It got even worse when my old man was on hospice cancer treatment, tiap tiap hari kena fak and maki by him sbab he was weak n miserable due to the chemo after effect. It was especially heart breaking when bringing him to choose his cremation plot, I will always remember his expression when he realised he is actually going to die

Lucky it was minimal suffering for him and when he passed, I actually felt a sense of relief for him. I still grieve every now and then but no regrets as am glad I walked with him till the end, made sure he lived his final years with dignity

So bub, hang in there. It is tiring and mentally draining but since u have decided to take care of them, chin up n walk with them till the end. Nak mengamuk go scream at the sky. It helps. Org lain might think we psycho. Lantak la dia org 😀
