   I'm worried for my father. He's had anxiety/depression issues all his life. With age, he has become less and less sociable. Having eliminated most of his old friends as he entered his fifties, mom was pretty much his only confidante.

   Mom's terminally ill and is rapidly getting worse. She won't be around for him anymore.

   He's been saying that he's not looking forward to that. I feel like I shouldn't be leaving him alone.

      I have a big sister. Normally, she'd be here to help out in situations such as these. Ufortunately, she was imprisoned a few years back due to a child abuse conviction. We think she's been wrongfully convicted. The Norwegian prison system permits prisoners to go on leave if they aren't a threat to the general public, but the victims must receive advance notice, and the prisoner must report to the police every day. This means they couldn't let my sister leave early, so I'm still waiting for her.
