Yeah its super tough everywhere at the moment, there was no way I could have afforded a regular house pretty much anywhere with only one mediocre income and my daughter. I wasn't about to rent again and be stuck on that treadmill for life either!
I was able to move home while I got this all started and helped them out as much as I could through their health issues and preparing to sell their place and retire. Mom was in and out of the hospital this last year with a series of aneurysms and finally had coils put in to prevent them from rupturing. They're still trying to figure out what exactly is causing them but they moved away when I moved in here.
Sorry to hear your folks are going through so much man, it sounds like your dad is tough as nails though dealing with all that and you get to be there to help them battle through it.
