Anne...Your dad sounds amazing...building a sailboat? Wow...that's so cool. And he's physically active. Sounds like he's doing well.
Your poor step-dad...it doesn't sound good having a sleep disorder like that. I can't imagine not being able to sleep next to Larry at night. I'm sure she misses that.
Good luck with your step-father getting a physical...I hope he'll go.

Funny how when we're young we never think of all the things we will face when we grow older. At least I never did, did any of you?

I don't think my step-dad has had that physical yet. He and my mother DID both get tested recently by the nurse at the facility they live in... Memory testing etc. Apparently they thought they only had to pass the test to get moved in, but now it is a year later and the nurse came and did it again -- in their home.

Test consisted of things like counting backwards from 100 by 7, creating a clock face and placing the hands in requested positions, looking at a series of words and then having to say what they were 30 minutes later.

My step-father scored perfectly, which flabbergasted my mother, and meant that no "red flags" were raised.

Guess he is good at test taking.
