Suggest Treatment For Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

I hava a nephew whom is physically and mentally adhd. all his life I have had to make him bath. never brushes his teeth or bathes. we wash his clothes and equip him with all he needs to take care of himself. everyone he has ever had in his life has accepted his ways as him. he is now 50 and will not comply n the stinch is unbearable. how can we get him to bath? he is a big hearted man but is unreachable. tried talking with much understanding, bribery with exspensive gifts, females flirting to encourage... 40 years of trying n not giving up on him????

Pediatrician 's  Response
You know it is difficult to explain him because mentality problems, you should accept him like as he is. We can not change him, but you can use wet towel and bowl and rubber his body in any room. You should take care about him like as for baby. I am really sorry, but i dont think that we can change him.
