I'm so sorry you have to go through this alone. When my parents moved to a nursing home, and later when my dad died, I had two siblings who really carried the load. Take care of yourself first; that's important.
Now a couple of practical things. Did your dad give you medical or financial power of attorney? When he has lucid periods do you think he would? Both these would make doing what needs to be done much easier. Also, ask around about lawyers who deal with Medicaid; there are rules about money, but knowing what would happen when the money gets low will help you. My parents went to the nursing home with about 80 thou in the bank. We did things like pay for funerals, buy headstones, things like that with the money while we had it - then paid it out to the nursing home. It lasted about 10 months for 2 people.
