My mother in law has never really shown much interest in getting to know me, she is desperate to spend time with her son.
So 2 weeks ago mother in law fell at home and fractured her shoulder. She lives alone and is a hoarder. The house is full, not only a health & safety risk for her but absolutely disgustingly dirty. We took her home with us and are now stuck. She is living in our lounge and does absolutely nothing accept for taking over. Both my husband and I work full time and struggling to manage it all. The only time she moves off the sofa is to go to the toilet.
I went to fracture clinic and doctor said needs to take arm out of sling and use elbow otherwise will be stiff. She has blatantly told my husband she shouldn’t move it.
When try to address her house complete denial to the state it’s in. Going to book appointment with GP and take photos but what next? I know this sounds selfish as my kids are now adults and was looking forward to having my own time. I do not want to become her carer. I do help but this really isn’t a long term solution. All ideas welcome...
