My mother died a little over a year ago. I spent that time driving back and forth (two hours) taking care of my father. To make a long story short, My father finaly sold his house and my sister agreed to take him in until he found a place. My sister and her husband found him a senior housing facility and he is the next person on the waiting list to be admitted. It might take a month or two to get him in there but the facility assures us that he will be the next person to move in. My father has been at my siser's house for about a month. We all thought everything was going smoothly and he would move out in a month or two, when he called me and told me that she is kicking him out of the house and he's got two weeks to find a place. She even called an old apartment complex where he used to live (far away from any of his children) just so she could get him out of the house. Now, I know that its not easy to have him in the house, but she knows that its just temporary and he will move out in the near future. Its in the middle of winter right now and she wants him out in two weeks. I was appalled when I heard this. She has a pretty big house and she should be able to accomodate him for a short time longer. Does anyone agree with me? I live in a tiny apartment so it would be a tight squeeze for him to get in here but I would take him if I had too. I'm just so upset that she's kicking him out so quickly and not concerned where he goes...

Does the facility have an available bed short-term until his unit is open?
It should only be for a few weeks, so you should be able to make it work, but there may be a lot more to this.
Not easy, for either of you
