also doing alot with my dad, more and more, he's 89 now.
taking him shopping and varous trips here and there,.. Im not complaining though, as I have no idea how long i have left with him
He is just so frail now, but in good spirits..
I just do what i can and try to stay in his good books

well, we had a rough plan to go New Zealand this year, but he decided it woud be too much for him, and alot for me to look after
I would have done it gladly ,and for free, as always.. but his call..
I dont think we'll be doing any more overseas trips together... Might do the odd trip to adelaide where we have relies , a few left there..
Im not liking this, wish he were 20 years younger, we could have done aus in the tardis.. but just didnt work out... I hate that... I really do... Sometimes Im a little scared to go over to his place, just , well ,... In case he's ...
any ways....
just wish i could do more for him.... I do what I can...

That's all you can do Milo - the best you can for your dad - let him know you love him and are there for him.
Take each day as it comes - remember good times and reminisce with him - get lots of laughs - they are what you want to remember.
Take it easy mate - might see you on our way north.

Can only agree with Jules, Milo. You are a much better son than a lot of guys I know. Your Dad's a lucky man. Just do your best, and let him know you love him.
Don't stress yourself out.
Cheers,
Sheba.

You are a damn good son to your dad Milo. Wish there were more like you. Take it easy, chin up and know your dad does really appreciate it, even if he doesn't always say so.
