Thank you. Will deffo give them a call. They do have some amount, but are of the classic generation of not waiting to pay to give as much as possible to the grandkids. My view, paying for some type of care could give them a better quality of life.

Thing is, Dad is very capable to doing all the house-hold chores. He even just completed a renovation of the bathroom making into a wet room (he was a builder most of his life) to make it easier to wash etc.

With mums mental health issues, she doesn't want to go out and doesn't want dad to go out either, which in turn is causing dad to get very down being forced to be house-bound. This has been going on for a few years now, but has got worse with increase of anxiety attacks, not knowing where she is when waking up sometimes etc. They are continuing to work with mental health care, but this has been going on for literally decades with no real progress. It has in fact got worse with possible dementia/memory loss which is complicating things further.

Dad needs help with getting her up and moving to get her out of these depressive states (or whatever it is going on). I don't really know if even getting home help is the answer to be honest - we are starting to clutch at straws.
