I'm sure some of them would allow pets. you could sign up for home health and household assistance. it might be an option. Good luck and know that my prayers are with you. |
Dee,
I have to say, I agree with you. I think the DIL is using the Yorkie as a scapegoat. She can't say straight out she doesn't want her MIL living with them. If Kathy gives up her baby, her DIL will only find something else to complain about.
I think, before the relations become anymore strained, maybe they should check out some rentals for seniors/disabled as you said. A friend of mine in WA has a sister-in-law with MS. She is on government aid, has been able to stay in her own home and someone comes in cooks, cleans, does her laundry.
Help is out there. I hope Kathy comes back and reads this thread and learns there may be other options for her. I really hope she won't give up her baby.
