[quote=Anonymous]What to do? Mom is barely functioning (eating too little, eating moldy food, taking meds wrong) but refused outside help. Where she lives, there are services that would come to her house every day to take care of her. I live far away and can’t bring her close to my home. Even if she could come, I wouldn’t be able to afford care for her here, and I am physically unable to provide what will be needed eventually. I know she wants only me to do everything but I am spread too thin with a failing marriage, 2 kids, and my own serious health issues. What’s the way out? I can’t leave her alone in her home, this won’t end well. She’s obstinate and refuses everything and legally I can’t force this upon her until much later. She made no provision when she was able.[/quote]
