Oh my! I hope you can 'work' this out with the help of the "labor depart-
ment" in your area.
This is an example of why I made it a 'boundary' for me, many many
years ago, even when I was still drinking, NOT to work for any 'family
member, close or distant, EVER. Just a personal boundary of mine as I
have seen incidents like this happen over and over to friends and
sponsees.
Sending good thoughts and prayers to you.
Love and hugs,
