Afraid to bring my dad home from the hospital

My father suffered a devastating heart attack, that came out of nowhere. And i have been primary care giver for my mom, while my dad helped. All that, I could somehow find a way to handle, but my brother destroyed his marriage during my dad’s hospital stay, and it most likely means that we all will be cut off from his family and my parent’s only grandchildren. My dad doesn’t know, but feels something is wrong. I am scared to no end about how this will end. For my dad and for my whole family. I don’t know what to do and how to help, I am exhausted from being the only care giver and emotional support and buffer. Trying to focus on a step at a time doesn’t help when you are under constant stress.

Thank you for your kind words. I process things by talking about them, and being heard helps. And I am glad you have the care you need, and I hope emotional support too. ❤️🤗When I get reminded that I do make at least some difference, it’s easier to go forward. All the best wishes to you.
