[quote=Anonymous]OP, how much wealth are we talking? If it's, say, ten million or more, he's an ass for not helping take car of her. if it's more like several million, he's smart to divorce her because then she will be eligible for medicaid - though with trump, who knows what that means. And then he can save his money for his old age rather than depleting all his savings to take care of her and then not have money for his own end of life care. My mom has dementia and income care has been 150k a year. Now that she has more trouble walking, it's nearly 300k because the agency says she needs two people to help her walk, toilet, and shower. So unless he has 150k-300k a year to keep her at home, she's going into an institution anyway at some point. You are his sister. I find it a bit odd that you don't want him to protect his own life, well being, and savings. That said, would I date your brother? Hell no. But as his sister I think your reaction is...rather odd.[/quote]
