If you did not live in Canada for 24 months in the last 5 years, you have lost your PR status due to lack of interest to live in Canada.  The only thing that would protect your PR status is if your spouse is a Canadian citizen or if you were working for a Canadian company.

You can try to apply for a travel document stating humane and compassionate reasons for not living in Canada during this time due to health of parents but no guarantee that you would be approved.

from what you say, you have little chance unless you can come up with proof, as Leon says, of special circumstances

that's why, when you initially get PR, they give you a clear warning about your residency obligations
