Cuyahoga county. He is 54, turning 55 in may.
I live with are mother, in a suburb of cleveland. He lives in cleveland.
I work 40 hours a week. She has alzheimers. I am trying to deal with issues.
The doctor just told her no more driving last thursday. Every day since she has
asked for her keys back. I am worried sick. I get sick at least 2 times a week.
I have a boyfriend who is very understanding. I hardly get to see. Put it this way I love him that is why i am trying to get him help. I love her too. I have no quit time to myself at all.
I just dont have the means to support him too. Are mother is a great mother, she has done a lot for us. He is not in the right frame of mine, hasnt been to a doctor in 3 years his teeth
are rotten, he does not bath, he lives in filth. He wears glass on top of glasses to see.
He is on social security disability. his money does not go very far. Are mother
pays a lot of his expenses out of her own pocket. 400 rent, then his phone, electric
food. then of course smokes. When he needs shoes or furniture or clothes she pays
for it. She needs every penny, she has right now to pay her medical bills as well as
food, smokes and the bills we split. I go to alzheimers meetings once a month, the people their can not believe what i have been through, and that it is getting worse.
tried telling my brother around the holidays about mom, he got really upset. He will not
have his waitress no more. He calls all hours, wakes me up. so i have to keep the phone off. My mother is up and down all night waking me up as it is. sorry so long. I am stressed big time worried about my job, we are slow right now. might lay people off. God i hope not. Hope your answer helps me out. have a nice day.

no never went to court. I do not want to go to court, for him. I will go for her if I have to.
Become guardian of her. I talked to Ms miller that works for the guardianship.
She first said, your mother has to write a letter giving up care giving for your brother.
Last January. I told her she said, no don't do it. Once I got financial power of attorney over her in July of last year. I called her back. She said, what you have told me he is being taken care of. I told her he is a mess medical. She said, that guardians spend time
with the paitent. Pay their bills. Take them shopping I guess. She said, they do not tell the person they have to go to a doctor. do not force them in other words.
If something is not done with him soon. Being that he has not had his medication in i dont know how long. He might show up at the house and do something. He has done that before when he was not on his med. Had me up against the house with one arm way over my head. My shoulder was sore and bruised for a month. Another time my mother came and woke me up, saying she had to call the cops on your brother,
cause he was strangling me. After are mother went to court in parma. The next thing i
knew he was at a place in garfield heights being studied. She just kept telling mom i
want to go home, i dont want to be here. I think she is scared of him. Does what he wants. When every he calls, she jumps and does what he wants. This is wrong, very wrong. Especially at her age. If she knew he was safe. Being taken care of, she would
be more at easy.
