She's been living with us and has progessively worse to the point where we can no longer take care of her. She is a very stubborn 90 yo and everyone is at their wits ends and just basically sick of arguing with her. She won't bathe, sleeps most days for more than 15 hrs a day, will normally only eat lunch that we provide and may have a bottle or 2 of water a day. She gets an occasional bout with diarrhea and the last one was the last straw for everyone. We had an appointment for her with her Nurse Practitioner which was suppose to be last Wednesday come to find when they called to confirm she cancelled the appointment and the scheduled blood work. We have no idea if she even takes her meds when she is suppose to which may be part of the problem but when we try to talk to her about it she goes storming off to her bedroom and closes the door hence the 15+ hours of sleeping. She was ok but then when all this COVID hit and everyone was at home it was like she turned in to a totally different person. I am sure we cramp her style since she was used to being home by herself most days and DH went back to work last week and I will be going back within the next month. I just do not feel at all comfortable leaving her for an hour let alone 8+ hours every day. We tried bringing someone in to help out and that was a disaster too but there has to be other options out there just looking for some guidance. TIA
