Question: I am 79 yrs. old with my 53 yr. old bi-polar daughter living in my home. My doctors are complaining about the
stress that affects many health issues such as diabeties, blood pressure ,athsma, kidney malfunction, chronic
back pain osteoarthritis ,etc. I am on nerve pills twice daily and sleeping meds due to sleep-apnea. She was diagnosed several years ago but she left home at 19 yrs. of age. In hind-sight I can recall situations that should
have been signs. Once again she has caused herself to be totally dependant, homeless, no car, no job,to clean noinsurance, nothing but food stamps. she treats me disrespectfully, yelling, refusing to clean
