[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 296538, member: 1233"] You have a heart as big as all outdoors and as kind as Steve Martin is funny. H and his family are BLESSED to have you in their lives. Here there is a part of the law about mandatory reporting of elderly who are not being cared for properly. That includes not taking driving privileges away if the person is not safe behind the wheel. Getting lost on your home territory must be terrifying. But probably not as terrifying as having driving privileges revoked. People here take elder abuse as seriously as child abuse. At least in my town. Reports are confidential. Investigation is mandatory and families can even face charges if they are neglectful or abusive to an elderly person. It is still so hard to know your parents need parenting through this phase of their lives. That is no excuse for allowing an elderly man with Alzheimer's to climb up on the roof to clean out gutters! I will keep you and father in law/H's family in my prayers. Lots of hugs! [/QUOTE]
