About 6 weeks ago, my mother-in-law (MIL) and her son were forced to live with me because she had abused pills for so long with alcohol. Her other children and family refused to help her because of the troubles she had given them over the past years. She had been rushed to the hospital a few times due to her body being in shock with no alcohol or pills while staying with us. It was six weeks with no norcotic pills and alcohol and she was complaining about back pain butshe gained her weight back and she looked human again so we took her to see a doctor and the doc prescribed her more medication two of them being norcotic. So we told her not to abuse them and she was doing well and we trusted her. Over the course of one night, she had taken and abused several of the norcotic pills. We confronted her about it this morning and she tried to deny it. We counted them in front her and she says the the pharmacist mis-counted them whell they filled her prescripton. When we told her we counted them before we went to sleep shee admitted to taking them. I then asked her if she needed help she didn't answer. This is my second time taking her in for this because she almost died several times from drug abuse. She has no other family that is willing to help her and now she's not willing to take care of herself. Sheis only 46 and has no life insurance. What should I do?
