Visited dad today, again, but it was no ordinary visit, visiting someone who is my dad, but unrecognizable. Nobody seems to want to come up with a solution, but clearing up excrement, changing beds, and clothes, and hoping that he might be better tomorrow is not the best solution. Social Work and the Addiction Team bounce him off each other, and nobody will take responsibility. At least home helps come in daily but they are not required to clean up shit.
I'm sad, depressed, and at a point where I don't know what to do. Can somebody in authority help? Nah!
He got violent with me again today. Just his own exasperation and anger.
Heart up to 150bpm. Dizzy. Going to bed. The Lent Group will happen without me.

I'm sorry to hear that , Kenny .
Just maybe if he was officially regarded as a vulnerable person rather than being dismissed as an 'addict' then more would be done for him .
I do'nt know .
But , utterly miserable for him , you , and others .
