[quote=Anonymous]You figure out a plan. Sibling too busy working to help...great...how about she contribute some of that money to pay for caregivers. Are you sure there is no money there for you to pay yourself for your work? When you sell the real estate can't some of that be used to hire help? If they refuse to sell to pay for their own care, that's on them. The more you can pay others to do stuff and remove yourself the better. It is quicksand. When I lost my mind helping my own parents a therapist used the example of boiling lobster in hot water or maybe it was frog. You gradually increase the heat so they don't try to escape and then it becomes too late. Don't do yourself in. Hire help so you can merely visit and have quality time. [/quote]
