Just have to put this out there.

We have an ill sibling that recently went into assisted living.

They have heart and kidney issues. Had to go to doctor appointments at least twice a week. Her twin would take her most of the time.

They do have two children. but one lives out of state. The one that lives by her would basically fix her meds. The DIL and grandkids didn't seem to ever visit.

I would help with her pets - bring them food - etc.

Well this week we were banned from her home. I was still going over there to feed the dogs. I guess they will starve now. I hope son and DIL will do the right thing.

DIL is a little wacky - the son just goes along with it. It is hard to believe that after all we did to help - they don't want us around. And no - we do not need any of her stuff in the house. They are already selling things.

I feel bad for her twin that did a lot for her.

Thanks for listening to me.

If the dogs are not being fed/watered/attended to, call the humane society.

Or offer to take the dogs, if they haven't already "taken care of them". At least you could find them good homes.

I spoke with her neighbor today and she is checking on the pups. So far they are okay.

But I just cannot understand why they would not take this into consideration!!!!

I did buy enough food to last them all month.

And I guess the neighbor is not "banned" from the house.

I do plan on bringing that up to them tomorrow.

Thanks for letting me vent!

Did they give a reason for the banning? How was it done?

Just curious. Like they called and said "you are no longer permitted at my mother's?

They put a big note on the front door that said Stay Out.

It's called toxic narcissism. Good luck, you're going to need it!

Although given Sonic_Spork's experience with trying to sell things, they may not be having much luck.
