I know how it is when you have to spend all day with someone who does absolutely nothing but whine and complain, it's maddening. Does your dad have any hobbies or anything he can do to pass the time? Is he a reader? Maybe you guys could play cards or board games or do a puzzle or something? I don't know, just tossing out suggestions. I know it's not really your job to entertain him, but maybe if he sees you're trying to help him out and that you care, he'll stop complaining as much.
I may have gotten him hooked on Supernatural today, so we'll see how that pans out over the course of the next few days. I found out today that he wasn't taking the medication his doctor prescribed him, not that that's really a problem because he wasn't in pain for the first few days, and I know I would avoid taking stuff if I didn't think it was necessary, but it is an invasive surgery and he hasn't been regularly taking the pain stuff so there's not really much of anything in his system to fight back. But I do believe he got his prescription bumped up or more of it, or something, and he got a lecture from my grandmother, who's a volunteer EMT so she knows what she's talking about, about taking stuff regularly, so I hope to GOD that this helps.
