    Hey Sinead. I know it can feel like that and that nothing you do gets acknowledged but bottom line he's your dad and I have a feeling going by your you love him dearly. This is why you do what you do.

    Its less then a year since your mam passed away. Who like all Irish mammies did Trojan work around the place. It is still very early days and you seem to be adopting that role.

    While likely frustrated I would think you are more likely stressed out?
