[quote=Anonymous]You need to do what your mom needs. Just do it and tell the sibling far away afterward. If that sibling wants to provide the service, let him or her move here to provide it. I totally get the bathroom need. My mom had a stroke and we hired a live in worker 24/7 weekdays, but my dad had to help my mom in the middle of the night for toileting. It was too much on him. The aid was not a good cook and my dad did not cook either. It ended up my mom was happier in assisted living. She may not have been estatic, but at least her needs were taken care of. It is still a lot of work to have a parent in assisted living. You need to buy clothes, keep up with health care appointments, shopping for what she wants. Your sibling just wants to inherit money and does not care about your parents. [/quote]
