Talk w/therapist: Dealing with aging or ill parents can be extremely challenging, especially when they live far away. I'm sorry you're faced with this difficult choice. I urge you to review all your options before acting. Discussing your situation in detail with a psychologist or other mental health professional may help you sort through things. A geriatric care manager may help too. http://www.caremanager.org/.
