[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1947415, member: 345386"] The crushingly sad reality is you can only do what you can do, no matter how much you (and we wish for you) it was different. You know, I had a situation like this a while ago, where I know I wasn't getting the whole story, but short of bamboo shoots up into the nail beds (I don't recommend it. I probably just watched too many old films, with the odd torture scene in them!), there's nothing you can do. Listening to someone giving you an update over the phone and when the call ends, knowing you know no more than you started with, is the pits, but all you can do is keep making the calls and pick the best out of it. At least, having seen this, you can be there for your Mum, and if you keep talking to your Dad, he'll know you'll be there should a crisis arise. It's really a really rubbishm time, obviously.
