[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Caring for someone with progressing dementia is no easy task. I'm lucky that my parent who has it has my sister who quit her job to take care of them. I help her and them financially. 1. Tell your siblings that you can no longer manage it. The dementia is getting to the point that she needs supervision that you cannot manage. Don't apologize for it. Put your mom in a care facility [b]2. Tell one of the siblings to take care of the bills 3. Tell the other one to manage doctors appointments[/b] 4. Tell them that you will manage visitations IMO, that is fair. [/quote] And when they say "no," what happens? [/quote]
