My friend's parents currently spend their winters in Arizona, and come back
here April - September (I think). Both of her sisters live here in town
with their families, and I know that one is a nurse at the hospital. She
also has a brother who lives in a nearby town. They know about the
situation but I think they're not sure of what to do.
Thanks,
Anthony

Anthony,
I know it's frustrating to stand by and watch your friend go through
this -- does she have any family who could act on her behalf if she
can't speak up for herself?
