Big trip

My Mom-in-Law has undiagnosed Dementia because my husband cant take her to a dr and her daughters refuse to help him.
My hubby has planned a big trip to Europe for us, we live in the states. It was all her idea and will cost us 26,000.

Mom-in-law is very excited but heavily talking about us getting our car trunk robbed in France and getting robbed at an ATM.

Mother-In-Law is so stressful for me, I just can not deal with her. I just got over having skin cancer removed off my face.

I just want my husband to handle her.

His sisters let her run wild and she’s almost 82.

Wow. What ever happened to compassion, dignity, understanding, empathy?

You all sound quite uncaring tbh. Don’t go if you can’t cope with her.

Standard advice is not to take people with dementia out of their normal environment as it is too disruptive

Has she got appropriate travel insurance for this trip?
