Here is a thought I just had...move in with your parents for now and rent your house for as much as your mortgage payments are. Then save up some money or whatever and either look for rentals or a different house to buy and then maybe try to sell the old house. Then you don't have to keep making payments on an empty house while trying to sell and living with your folks. I hope this makes sense.
My dad is really getting up there in years too and is 70+ He loves staying here with us during the week and helping take care of Joshie. He's not dying but his health isn't the best, so I "nurse" him while he's here. I try to make healthy meals (he is diabetic) and set all his meds up for him every week. I also take him to all his Dr. appointments. I love doing it because he's my dad and I love him and I know his years are numbered. I think it is good for my kids to spend time with their grandpa also and my dad's face just lights up when he is with the boys.
Sorry to write so much; just the ideas were a-pouring out tonight.
Blessings, Michelle
