Who often exhaust themselves caring for other family members at the expense of their own health. I'm glad your sister is OK. I hope she can get some rest now. So sorry for the loss of your Dad. Its heartbreaking to see a parent become feeble and helpless. May he rest in Peace and your memories of him at better times endure.
