How do you deal with watching them deteriorate?

I am having such a problem watching my Dad go down hill...

It is so painful for me to visit him, and watch the decline. I have avoided going to see him, but that's not the solution, and I know it. It only produces guilt in me, and anger in his wife...

But inside that shell of my father, I can't find my dad anymore..

He doesn't know me. He is just a frightened, angry confused, little man...

How do you deal with that stranger inside your parent's face??

Can anyone help me?
