Why do you want to try to, is the real question.

She's had fourteen hospital admissions since the start of 2017.

I just don't understand this family. Why wouldn't you give the disabled person a phone first? The parents are paying for her younger brother's phone. He doesn't work. Why doesn't someone drive the car to keep it running and in decent shape? The cats aggravate her allergies, yet they bring more cats in the house. They made ribs Monday night, but ate them on the couch and in the rocking chairs like pigs. GF and me were the only ones eating at the table like normal people. Messy as hell. Grandma is there all day and could clean, but the place is a mess. They aren't bad people and I think they try, but the entire family except GF seem completely inept and clueless. Some of the explanations they've given for things make no sense at all. I know their situation sucks, but man, their behavior just makes more problems on top of the real ones they have no control over.
okay, now you are just teasing us. No SANE person would continue to WANT to be part of that family from hell. This is just nuts.


You completely lost all sympathy from me. And I don't understand why you keep adding more weird info about this family after EVERYONE tells you to GTFO. With every further post you lose more credibility.


Sorry, I really couldn't say it any nicer way. I think you need to step outside your body for a minute and look at the situation from an objective point of view.

You just started dating this woman. You are doing FAR, FAR more for her, and for her family, than most people that are engaged (maybe even married).

Now you want your grandfather to fix their appliances and plumbing?

Fix the appliances and plumbing for the parents of a woman who you only dated a few times. Are you F---ing Crazy? You are getting in way too far, way too fast, way too deep. I can't believe that you don't see this. I hope that your grandfather tries to set you straight and refuses to do that.

I already told him how she could get a free phone and was ignored even for that .
This is beyond ridiculous.
The rest of you, enjoy, I'm gone

If she has a several thousand dollar deductible she has to reach before insurance even starts paying, it gets really unaffordable.
According to the OP, though, it hadn't even crossed her mind. That's what I was addressing. It's not her job to try to figure out what her potential treatment options are. That's what doctors are for.
