[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Work is not happening, OP. I don't know if there's addiction or a mental health issue or both, but it's hard to find a job these days, especially if you don't have a work history and are on the older side.

Yes, that’s a shame, but not my problem.

2. It's useless to pay for rehab or whatever your husband is talking about. She's not getting better. That's money down the drain! Put your foot down.

I agree.

3. What you two need to do is TALK to the sister. Does she even want your help?

DH talked to her.  She did not want his help.  Hence why he is trying to go the intervention route.

4. You can perhaps agree to paying a modest rent on a studio, and her mother is responsible for food support or medical appointments or whatever else she needs.

No, we can not afford to support another adult.

5. PAY THE BILL DIRECTLY. Do not give SIL the money.

I will not be paying any bills for SIL.  [b]She should find another means to take care of herself.  If not, an overdose is probably the best option for her.
