[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your sister is helping them in the home they own, why would moving her out and hiring help be better for them? I think you're not appreciating the working solution they have now. You should help them make the situation they are comfortable with more sustainable, rather than trying to change everything around to suit your preferences. You don't need to feel guilt over it, or make excuses.[/quote]

The sister is mooching. If she was helping then neither the parents nor the sister would need to reach out to the East Coast sister.

I have a moocher sibling. They are 40 and live with my parents rent free. They "help" my parents, but the extent of helping is carrying in groceries. My mom still drives and does all the driving because my sibling hates driving but can drive. Neither parent is in bad shape, either. Guess who gets called to handle the big issues? Me.

My sibling is going to have a tough time with the large employment gap in their resume when they need to get back out there and support themself. [/quote]

Sister is handling it all.   Not op.  Op would be there given the severity if she cared.  [/quote]

I guess I could permanently injure myself or put myself in a wheelchair. I mean, isn't that what caring is? [/quote]

Oh the drama.  So, you are stuck home in bed never moving out of bed? [/quote]

I was advised by medical professionals that the plane ride would be a problem right now, as will lifting anything over a couple pounds, unless I want the injury to become permanent
