[quote=Anonymous]Ideally, the GF should tell your FIL what the future plan is for their relationship and it will not include FIL staying/living with her at her home anymore. However, since your DH and you are both there, I would suggest that all three of you sit with FIL and have a candid conversation about what his needs are and what kind of care he will need going forward. And it won't be long-term care provided by this elderly woman. IMO a team approach may be best here. I am sure the GF will still visit FIL wherever he may wind up, as long as she is able. They can still have a relationship, it will just be different. If the three of you can present a united, caring front whose interests are making sure FIL is cared for sufficiently, that would be best. [/quote]
