[quote=Anonymous]Hire help. Cleaning out a hoarded house is wretched work, and even with a hoarding clean-up company, it took a solid week all day every day, is included, to get the bulk of the work done. If it’s your parent’s wish to sell, get a real estate agent, talk through what needs to happen and timelines, and push through it as a logistical puzzle. Remind the sibling with hoarding disorder that this is the parent’s decision. Best if you have the POA or what have you to act as your parent’s agent and get it done. And I’m sorry. It’s hard in so many ways to have a family member’s mind distorted due to untreated mental illness, which this is. Therapy for you is not a bad idea.[/quote]
