Yeah I have been through this with my father in-law, and initially it was very tough, not knowing how much damage had been done to the brain. And then watching him struggle to try doing what he considered normal.
Being a farmer he found it very difficult to do many things, as simple as walking, and opening jars and bottles. We helped were we could, hubby took over running the farm, and I took them shopping, to doctor appointments, and the family helped around the home.
He sadly died a few years ago due to Alzheimer's disease.
I have included some links that maybe helpful. I wish you and your family good health and luck in your father's recovery.
