Hi. I’m 20 years old. like it matters, but this is really complicated. On my dad’s side, my grandmother has begun to lose her mind and she has a hard time remembering things or who people are. She is also driving, and she just, she can’t drive. She swerves, stops in the middle of the road, doesn’t look when she backs out, she’s psycho. I’m sorry. Her driving is literally a danger to our society. I think she is about 85, I’m not sure.
The only kid she had nearest to her was my father and he passed away two years ago. Her two daughters, my aunts, live in different cities and come here to visit sometimes.
The deal with them is, when my dad was sick, they took him away from us, his FAMILY and put him in a nursing home that was 20 miles away. The only person who could drive there was my brother and he was busy so I only went to see him twice before he passed away. It really hurts me because his backstabbing sisters got to see him every day, and I’m sure they fed his brain with stupid things about us that he believed because he was always heavily medicated and had a cancerous brain.
Anyways, his sisters aren’t realizing that Grandma needs to be somewhere where people can take care of her. I don’t want to put her in a home out of spite, please understand that. I don’t know how I would go about doing this, though. I think she wants to be in a home, she could make friends and do things instead of being bored all the time.
My question is, who can I talk to about this? Since my aunts are too busy and don’t know how to do anything except take my dying father from his family.
Thank you.
