When families struggle to plan for Alzheimer's together

My mom was diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer's last month and my dad is insisting he can take care of her by himself while my siblings and I think he's in denial about what's coming. We're all trying to protect each other and mom, but we're not actually planning together and time is running out for the conversations we need to have.
