Janice, so sorry to hear this. If you send her home, she will undoubtedly get worse. Can you leave her there for a little bit and in the meantime try to get some rest and healthy living on your own.

Good Luck.

Janice I echo what's been said here - and want you to know I am pulling for you. Just remember that you are such a source of support to me especially when I have struggled. You are too valuable to drown yourself in this. I hope you feel better tomorrow.

Janice I'm very sorry that such a decision has to fall to you. I can only try to imagine how heavy that must feel. I wish you the best in sorting this out....I too hope you can see that alcohol will not help. Thinking of you.....

Janice, I'm so sorry. I guess I don't understand all of your situation since your brother can't help with the decision but that would be so hard. Sending hugs.

Janice, I'm sorry about your situation and empathise, as I'm visiting my ailing father at the moment. I completely agree with the others above that it sounds as though she'll be safest where she is. I would just like to add that there are times when all we can do is look for the least bad solutions. Perhaps in the future you could think about having her visit for short periods of time, at your place, in the family home with someone there with her, with your brother if he's up to it. Alternatives may present themselves after the initial adjustment. Do please look after yourself.
