How do you stand back and manage what is going to be a perfect storm elder care disaster when the elderly people in question are your PILs?
Every box is ticked- dementia, denial among siblings, house too big, no parent of mine is going in a home, 2 siblings local, one over a 1000kms away, hoarding, refusing help of carers, no POAs in place, hurts and resentments running riot, etc etc. Nothing this board doesn’t see all the time.
I don’t think DH and his siblings are handing it or planning things at all well. I think I can see the endgame of this disaster very clearly and they can’t. How do I support them without overstepping? For context, DH and I are the ones over a 1000km away.
