I would like to take my mother on a two week vacation trip but I am not able too because my father is not able to travel? Any suggestions?
Good morning. We have no one to care for him. Are their places that he can stay?

Try Googling "respite care in [name of your parents' location]" and seeing if any of the results look helpful.
