Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.

Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Blood blisters on hands and buttocks angry at the world sits on patio deck and plays backgammon against herself on a board game quit her job barely eats has no one as a companion hateful to everyone been drinking like this for 40 years
I am sorry that your daughter is drinking herself to death.
Have you tried to go to support groups for family members of alcoholics? I would recommend contacting alcoholics anonymous and asking them for resources for yourself, because your daughter will have to want to get sober for you to be able to help her and in the mean time protecting yourself and getting educated is all you can do.
Your profile says you are in you are 93 and healthy. I can’t imagine you having to go through this heartache in your golden years. I’m so sorry.
Your daughter has to decide for herself to stop drinking. It’s horrible to watch someone hurting and self medicating. I am glad that you are reaching out to this forum.
Is your daughter living with you? Are you caring for her? Did her drinking cause her to quit her job?
Have you looked into Al-Anonymous for support? She can’t quit drinking cold turkey. She needs a rehab program to help. If she drinks with certain drugs it’s actually deadly.
She also has to withdraw properly because sudden withdrawal can actually cause death too. I have a friend that flatlined. Thank God she got into a good rehab program.
Please let us know how you and your daughter are doing. Hugs!
I'm sorry you are going through this situation with your daughter. Sending you a big hug and a prayer that both you and your daughter get the help you need; she with the addiction factor and you with the psychological trauma her drinking is causing you.
tacy, its pretty commonly known that elder caregivers act out and even self medicate . i had law difficulties two times in my mothers last 2 years of life . a bike trip and a handful of pills followed by losing my sht and vandalizing a problem customers property upon leaving his job .
its evident now that the courts in both instances saw the difficulty me and jake were having even if we didnt necessarily make the connection ourselves .

My mother is an alcoholic, I went to Alanon meetings for many years, did help me to cope and learn how to not enable an addict.
So very sorry that you are having to face this.
