Hugs to your dad.
There was a movie recently - got an Oscar or two - Away From Her, based on a short story by Alice Munro. It stars Julie Christie as a woman who is slipping into Alzheimer's. Gordon Pinsent plays her husband.
I don't know if you want to see it just yet - and certainly not your dad - but it might be a thought for later.
