When the daughter put the potato salad leftovers in the refrigerator she finds moldy food on every shelf. When asked about the bills and the moldy food, Dad gets really angry when he was an easygoing guy all his life.
It is boiling hot and their air conditioner was not working what will happen when there is no one to check on them? He is alarmed as they did not call him, – With global warming, he feels he needs to call a care manager
