Add me to the folks thinking you dad may need a break from her. Maybe that will help give him the strength to stand up to her
That could be good for him, but awful for her. She's utterly, completely, dependent on him. And, frankly, he would feel terrible about it: I'm not sure how much benefit he would gain. Although I am thinking about it...

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Arrrggggg. Just got an e-mail from my dad regarding Christmas prezzies for my family. We have a choice of tickets to see Robin Williams or money towards a new washer/dryer (mine are close to 20 years old and limping along).

Consuela, even just a meal out with youo and your sister? A chance for him to take a deep breath and not have to be strong.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I'm so sorry you're having to deal with all this, Consuela. I have been supporting you with my brain, although not so much with the typing. It seems to me that she was pretty miserable at home, too. Is there any way to convince your father that no place is going to make her happy or turn her back into the woman she used to be, but at least she's safe at the residential facility? I've seen some pretty hard cases change their minds after a few weeks in a facility, but she's not going to do any adjusting if she's focused on leaving.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't have anything to add that hasn't already been said, but me too.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Me too, Consuela.

I'm mostly hoping your dad doesn't cave, Consuela.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That all sounds awful, Consuela. I hope you all can get through it somehow, and it gets better.

Yikes Consuela, I hope things can be straightened out.
