[quote=Anonymous]^To be clear, I'm not necessarily saying expressly go against FIL's wishes, it may take some easing into with both siblings being at the house at the same time and FIL going out for a walk or whatever is shorter than a medical appointment, but sometimes you do just have to jump in and offer help that seems obvious to outsiders but the parent hasn't gotten there yet. FIL is taking on more stress than anyone is aware, including himself. One other thing that differs from what others have said is I think OP is right to gently push her husband to get more involved, and just because it may make her life at home harder sooner doesn't mean it's not consistent with her values![/quote]
