Welcome back!
I'm glad you're getting your life back to normal finally. It's gret you got to bond with your Dad, and were kind enough to take care of him when he needed you. It's good to have had that time, but I can understand why it's good to get back to a more normal life again as well.

What you're feeling makes perfect sense. You enjoyed the time and bonding you shared with your father, but at the same time, you need a normal life and are happy to get back to that. Just be thankful for the time you had together and try to see him as often as you can. There's absolutely nothing to feel guilty about! You are not at all selfish or cold-hearted!

Hope things continue to improve!

It's tough when your parents need help but you still have a family that needs you. You've been a good daughter to be there when your Dad needed you and your family has been great to allow you to be there for him. Now it's time for your family to come first again, but you can still help out your Dad when he needs you. What a treasure to get to know your father better and spend that special time with him. You'll always remember that time with him.

I completely understand how you feel. I always take my mom to do everything she needs to on Saturday. Since I am sick I feel guilty that I can't do what she needs to but I have to work on getting well myself. I also hate that Angie has been spending so much time with me and interrupting her life. You have been a good daughter and taken care of him, but you also have your life and things you have to take care of.
