[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP obviously your aunt WANTS to be at home, that’s why she is getting hospice care. Or do you think this is about you?[/quote] Not OP, but that also means that the aunt needs to be able to care for herself at home or has the means to hire an aid to care for her at home. OP does not live there and can't provide care unless she quits her job and leaves her own family. It doesn't sound like the aunt or OPs parents are operating well intellectually. When I was dealing with a similar situation I basically had to have a complete and total breakdown, complete with crying, before my parents understood the seriousness of the situation -and- that I wasn't going to leave my dh and job and house and live with them hundreds of miles away until they happen to die.
