[quote=Anonymous]You can file for guardianship of her. She will be appointed counsel to represent her wishes and you will have to go to court and convince a judge that she's incompetent. You might be named the guardian or the court could appoint someone...which might or might not lead to better care. You can call adult protective services on her, which again could help but might not. Or you can wait until she gets sicker and then try to get more help. If she is competent and refuses services, there really isn't anything to be done unless she is putting others at risk (is she still driving? You may be able to get her license taken away, or even get rid of the car).[/quote]
