Oh dear, sorry to hear about all this, it's tough being the sandwich generation.

Lots of people have allergies nowadays, and gluten seems quite a common one. Luckily there are a lot of substitute food that you can buy, and it doesn't always have to be expensive - I recommend dried rice noodles from Asian grocery stores if you haven't them before, very versatile and nice.

As to your father, it's always difficult when you're living far away. You probably can do some things remotely in terms of managing household bills and decisions, but of course not being there physically really sucks. I hope some regular video calls will help so he and your mum knows you are there for them.

Take care

    Yeah the rice noodles are an awesome thing! I an "lucky" that my mom has the experience and she is usually safe in most vietnamese or thai restaurants! One thing that we should keep watch is the soy sauce since many brands they add wheat to the formula ! Yeah there are things that we already did like hiring a nurse to help them at home for example when he was feeling bad after the treatment… it isn’t like being there but it is a help!
