[QUOTE="witzend, post: 426924, member: 99"] I don't know [I]what[/I] to think. Is she seen by others elsewhere? I'm assuming your parents are getting up there in years? My great aunt got ill both physically and mentally when she hit her late 70's early 80's. She didn't come out of the house [I]at all.[/I] Some people - including her dying only child - she wouldn't see at all. Some strangers she let into the house. When my great uncle had a stroke she was horribly vulnerable and ended up getting ripped off by the neighborhood felons, and dying alone and frightened. The [I]good[/I] neighbors knew all about what was going on, moreso after the stroke, but they knew she was loopy before hand. If I were you I'd do a subtle welfare check on her with neighbors, fellow church members, family friends, anyone who might tell you that they have noticed that things have changed. They [I]may[/I] assume that you know, or they may assume that you are waiting to swoop in and take advantage yourself. She or your brother may have told them that. If what you hear is not what you [I]should be hearing [/I](she's peeved and can get over it in time) you can consider what if any your next step will be. My great uncle covered for my great aunt [I]very[/I] well. They were[I] terrified[/I] of a nursing home. It only took the neighbors 3 weeks to clean them out. [/QUOTE]
