That is a shocking and heart wrenching story. Poor woman! and I feel so utterly heartbroken for her father who must have felt so trapped and imprisoned those last few years of his life. How horrific that this man had a loving caring daughter who only wanted to help her father but was denied that by a bunch of fucking bureaucrats and uncaring bastards eventually leading him to a horrible death without the comfort of being with his family. I'm mortified by this story in every way.
I knew years ago an elderly man who would have moments of clarity in amongst thinking it was during the war and he needed to escape the pow camp. I felt so horrible for him and his family treated him like he wasn't there or like a child. It was horrible to watch. Talking about him like he wasn't in the room and i could see in his face that he had moment of knowing what was happening.
That father in this story probably had the same. I feel so sad and angry for the entire family.
