A side point, but an important one. Your daughter is watching. She will see how her Mother stepped in to help with her Aunt's crises. She will see how strong she was! She didn't let it overwhelm her life or trample her other responsibilities & relationships.

I watched as my Father attempted to move his elderly Mother in - best intentions from love but impractical & would have put my own Mother in caregiver spot as he went on his way to work. Us children watched.

I watched again as my mentally ill sibling was supported to live alone. Best intentions from love again. I see the house of cards ready to topple the minute he cannot hold the reins. I will not stand in the way of the logical path straight into supported accom. I will not let it fall to my own daughter to arrange.

Biggest hi-five Niece.

Let us know how it is going? I find it is good to have a "team" so that you all can solve a problem. I have visiting angels come once in while, then there is the primary care provider and their nurses, home health care, a neighbor, another sibling, drive a senior, meals on wheels, church group. VA, local senior center. With covid it has been difficult. but easing up. Each person I know if different, but handling the burden alone is going to tear you up!

Have you consulted with Aunt's doc about increasing her Seroquel?
