[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The meds can help a little in the early stages but at some point they are useless.  Can you fly out for a few days or a week to help him?[/quote]

OP here. We are 2 hours away. DH disinterested and not taking any action and just following his dad’s lead.

So as PP said I guess I will just let it go. Still so sad to see the inaction.

This is making me want to formulate my own plans - and make certain that our DC and maybe my siblings will uphold my wishes re: medical care, living arrangements, home care, etc.[/quote]
It is sad, and you are very wise to make plans for yourself. I would seriously consider whether you want H to be your decisionmaker. You have no power to change anything with ILs, and so you are not responsible. You can support as they will accept it, maybe grocery delivery, cleaning service, who knows? Let yourself off the hook. Sometimes, no matter how much love and concern we have, we just have to accept that we are powerless to change something.[/quote]
