My father's been starting to feel awful recently; he's 56 and has been complaining about stomach problems, his knee pops out once in a while, and he's always a total grump. Whenever I suggest he get his ass to a doctor, he just gets real upset with me and spends the next hour complaining about how he'd be out of work and we'll be living in the poorhouse.
What do I do /adv/? Do I just take him down to the doctor anyways? He's been my best pal for about 2 decades now, and I'd rather he be pissed at me than wind up horribly ill.
Tell him that you'd rather be in the poorhouse than lose a father to something that could be treated.
Yes OP, Get him treated, It's the best course of action, And I doubt he'll have a grudge on you for long
