[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for this thread and all the sharing. We are three sisters. Our mom lives independently and owns her apartment. She has someone come in three days a week to clean and prep meals but can barely afford that. One sister (58) is out of work, has no children and lives close to my mom and is currently not working. I could see her moving to help day-to-day. She has struggled the last ten years with alcohol (not daily, but at a party always gets drunk). She’s now distraught as her ex-husband died traumatically (Sister’s ex called her threatening suicide. Sister called police, but ex had already taken a mix of alcohol and Tylenol/cold medicine; Ex had overdosed before they arrived). She blames herself for not calling sooner. Reading this thread is helpful to remind me to clarify my boundaries. And help make sure my sisters are clear on my mom’s plans for herself. [/quote]
