Lots of questions don't know where to begin. Uncle has no children of his own so this is scary for me to see my future as I have no children of my own. He has a health care list a mile long. But main concern is he recently started to sleep more and more in his chair and only gets up to go to bathroom and clean up. He had been getting his own meals together at home (as of last week) now that he is with me since friday the 5th i prepare everything. Should I have him do it? Am I doing him a disservice by waiting on him hand over fist? I would hope he would tell me if he wanted to do it. Or if he is not wanting to hurt my feelings by letting me do it?
Really open communication is necessary to make this work. This is going to be a total lifestyle change for you. Suggest you read every post on the board to get a feel of what you possibly face.
Good luck!
Does he have any cognitive impairments due to the stroke?
What you are doing for your uncle is absolutely awesome. Do your best, and don't be too hard on yourself if things don't always work smoothly.
