6. Call the social worker affiliated to your sisters case.

They can help that is what they are there for. They are not there solely for the patient, they are there for the family.

They were good and so helpful when I needed them while taking care of mom. I had been called to Federal jury duty, that is 18 months service, when it was just 2 of us doing home care for mom. It was solved immediately.

Bsis, so sorry to hear about your sis.

Love and hugs to you and yours.

Peace to you and yours.
