[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for all the quick replies. We’ll she see if she has the cajones to communicate this directly to my FIL rather than telling it to DH, but then caveating “but don’t tell FIL.”[/quote]

Wow.  You're a gold-digger and trying to put the burden on an 85- year old woman to save your DH some money.  If she had wanted this type of relationship, she would have married him years ago instead of spending 20 years having a LTR without the benefits.

Tell your DH while he is out there to work on getting visiting drop in care for his father.  Someone that can come in daily and take care of light household work, make sure meals are prepped so that he can reheat them easily when he needs and to take care of the things he needs.

His LTR girlfriend has no obligation to nursemaid him.  I'm sure she will be caring for him, like visiting him regularly and bringing him meals, but she will do so at a level that she can handle.  It's not her responsibility.  It is your husband's responsibility.  [/quote]
