Yeah Reggie the more the merrier but seriously folks I think the best way to kill them is with kindness I notice they are fading further every time I am kind to them all day with their petty little calls so will get them yet but on my terms if I need back up I will call.....
MIL has now calmed a little and is getting over herself and has gone into a orthopaedic rehabilitation hospital for the foreseeable future and she will get help in there.
So fingers toes and eyes (Except when driving now) crossed that things will work out.

So the drying out begins. :eek:

Well good for FIL to realize that he deserves a better life. Good food and a clean house is a God given right, not a privilege.

Well, enjoy it while you can. Congrats to you and them.
At least enjoy the dream.
It'll give your nerves a chance to recoup. :D

Of course you did the right thing. Please bear in mind that is MIL i an alcoholic, she is a very sick woman and believe it or not, is probably doing the best she can. (as pi** poor as it may be). It's a blessing she's in rehab. If she can get some sober time, se may realize she has a serious problem and it is causing pain and misery all around. Bless you for helping them out ins spite of her venom. I'll be praying for the whole situation.
I'm sorry that I am just now reading this thread! WOW! You have been wonderful and should be praised and thanked!!! Your poor FIL has had a sloppy drunk to deal with for years and he deserves a break!!! This hip break of hers sounds like a blessing in disguise! I'm happy to hear that she is already having AA meetings, whether she wants them or not! Hopefully she will be in physio rehab long enough to also get her AA rehab!
It sounds like the BIL is finally seeing the light as well, keep up the good work! I'm only a PM away! ;)
Hugs,
Kim
thanks everone for the good wishes more Updates - MIL has just discovered the reason for her hip break is because she is under nourished and her bones are slowly crumbling. She is shocked by this but in a meeting we all sat with her (all that is except BIL's wife) and explained that she has a boiled egg and toast for breakfast and then thats it for the rest of the day unless someone buys her somthing to eat or cooks for her so she was not getting all the nutrients she needed. I am happy we had the meeting and hope she now takes things into account for herself. She also found out that her body was eating at her muscles because it had nothing else to survive on so they were wasting and all of this contributed to the fall.
She got a shock and the doctor and Counselor had to tell her what else could happen if she does not look after herself. We also found out that she has been getting a lot of sores on her arms and back and tummy from not looking after herself and if she keeps this up they will get infected and make her worse. so these are all things she needs to think long and hard about before she can be released.
I hope she gets a good rude awakener from this and comes out better than she went in.
