Thanks. I've been trying to take care of my brother and also my mother, about whom I am very worried. This is so stressful for her. She has barely left the house for a week because she wants to be close by for my brother. My older sister, who lives a distance away, has taken a week off to be home with mom and my brother during the day. But she will have to go back to work next week. I, too, have to work. Yet I'm anxious about leaving Mom and bro home alone. Not that he is violent or anything -- he's a very gentle person. But neither he nor my mom have strong physical or emotional resources to cope by themselves. I wish there were someplace he could go where he would get some help, but he is terrified of being "locked up" in an in-patient treatment center.
What a nightmare this all is...
