I printed out a lot of stuff, too. My son wasn't too keen on coming to this site because he said it depressed him. What I did was just leave the main stuff I thought would be helpful by his bedside for him to look at or not, whenever he felt like it. (I made sure it was just positive stuff) I could tell by his reaction later that he had looked at it and it helped. About the appointment, since you mention being the secondary caregiver, maybe you could check with the other caregiver and coordinate who sees which doctor? And then share information? How good it is that your Dad has such loving caregivers to help him through this.
