About who needs care: Neuropathy, has a hard time moving around. They do not have a set schedule, he needs help getting to the doctor once in a while, some help with food and mobility. He is not always stable on his feet and uses a walker most of the time but gets ambitious and walks sometimes by himself. Hobbies include watching true crime and reading the news. Very conservative and has no filter, need someone who is not sensitive. He enjoyed a life of machining and toolmaking and has 2 patents. He is widowed as of Sept 2017, and it has taken a toll. He does not take good care of himself and refuses to live in a home. Drinks and smokes heavily and has all his life. About the care needs: He is 120 lbs or so, may fall requiring assistance. The caregiver has to be tough and patient because he says some off the wall things and does not understand empathy whatsoever. He is a nice guy and can yap for hours. My dad loves reading the news and the Republican Party. He loves true crime, toolmaking, machining, engineering, science, Chinese food, and talking.
