My dad is nearly 84, he has dementia. I go and visit him and my mum every week and usually stay with them. My mum usually goes and meets a friend to get some time away / rest-bite.
I took my dad putting last night. I've already resigned myself to the fact that we won't get to play 18 holes again, so it's putting for now. He seemed to enjoy it, he even holed a few good putts. We had a pint afterward in the bar. He doesn't say much these days but I'm happy for the time together, it is growing shorter.
He was a decent player in his day, very competitive. I guess I got that bit from him, .
