evenkeel, thanks for posting! You are
RIGHT about having your concerns about your FIL's drinking. What you have described about your MIL and SIL enabling your FIL to drink under his condition could be considered elder abuse. I am pretty sure his doctors and the hospice nurses don't know what is going on in your FIL's house. They would
NEVER approve of it!
I can
NOT recommend enough to check out the following link and
GET HELP!
Iowa Department of Human Services
Protective Service Units are available in all DHS Iowa County offices. You can call your local DHS office to make a referral or use the toll-free, hot line number, which is answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: 1-800-362-2178
Contact your uncle if you feel you need additional support!
This is the
MOST important thing you can do
