My mom is mentally ill with dementia but aware of her actions.She was living with me until she started refusing to do anything for herself says she can't.wanting to be waited on even wants to go pull her up caught her doing it I have illnesses an its harming me.called her out on her lies an I said she's not using me or lying to me she won't even try to do anything for herself .She told me she don't lie all the time like it's ok.no remorse for the harm its causing me.she plays the health care to excuse her behavior to me or says she don't remember or sorry an does it still.So she looked at me an said she was gonna tell everyone that I abused her it's false I have a ton of people nurses etc.that said they would speak up for me.I informed the police of her lies an asked them an everyone social services etc.please investigate it I have nothing to hide .no one has yet so far .well she has no income from over payment my brother is in charge of her not me because I cut ties because their abuse lies but help him with what I can but not get involved because scared she still telling lies about me with no remorse.she had a over payment we didn't know so she has no income has to pay 14000 back to the gov so her checks cutoff an he can't find anyone to help us in anyway an told we have to take her back after rehab.I can't legally or mentally handle it or I will snap.I love her I want her cared for still.So we don't know what to do I am at a point that I need to her to be well cared for for my piece of mind.so help any feedback will be welcomed I am losing it.
If your mom is in rehab, talk to the social worker and business office at her current rehab facility. It would be nice if you and your brother could approach them together. Just be honest and explain as best as you can about what happened. Was it that she was on Medicaid before and received an over payment but cashed and kept the money instead of returning it? If you can clarify what your biggest concern is, then people might be able to help with advice.
