I know how helpless you must be feeling. I'm sure you've tried this but have you had her declared mentally incompetent? With her hallucinations she could be a danger to herself or others. I'm sure your Dad is just trying to not ruffle her feathers. I admire you for wanting to help her. It's a very difficult task to take on the care of others. This I truly understand. Please keep us informed. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!

Thanks so much, I’ve no experience with how the legal system works and am awaiting contact from my family attorney. My dad is in denial and will be furious with me even suggesting this. This is all that is left of my birth family, so there is really no one else to get involved. My husband is a gem, but my sister has not treated me well over the years, she’s 8 years older. So I don’t really discuss it much with him as I know he wants to protect me from her verbal abuse. Sounds like I have my work cut out for me.

You certainly do have your work cut out for you. I'm glad you have a supportive and protective husband. I'm here to chat anytime and feel free to PM me.
God Bless!
