[quote=Anonymous]Not sure about the lawsuit, but she can definitely have an adult abuse case opened up against her. Unfortunately I see these filed all the time at work with cases of neglect. Not saying what your mom is going through rises to that, but it could go down that path at some point. On a personal level, this is a really hard transition. It sounds like she's in the stages of not being ready to accept that this is her life. It's common and really difficult. I can remember when my dad got to the point where he couldn't be left alone and my mom really struggled with coming to terms with the fact that this was her life. Can you and your siblings take some time off and go to SC and get involved? Get your dad to a doctor's appt and sit in on it with your mom. Help prepare financials for when it's no longer safe for him to live at home. Find your mom some local or online support groups. [/quote]
