Hi Dinah,
I just want to say good luck to you. I too think your plan of talking plainly to the doctor, and then to a pastor & the caregivers sounds good. If between those 3 sources, nothing instigates change, then proceed via the legal route.
You are being a great daughter to persist in making sure your father & mother get (& provide) the best care possible.
My own 58 year old father has alzheimers (middle stage) and my diabetic mother not only cares for him, but is the legal adopted parent for my 6 year old neice & 5 year old nephew and something is going to have to give in that situation soon. I can empathize with what you are going through.
Good Luck,
Kim
