Uncles stroke causing mom and aunt pain
Hi my uncle had a stroke months ago and couldn’t stay home alone due to not being able to walk. He’s been put into a home but my mother and aunt have been calling and checking up. The issue is he calls them whenever he wants something, and sometimes his requests are impossible and unfair and in full context, he’s wrong. He’s also very mean and aggressive and lies a lot. I don’t want to blame the stroke because he’s always been like this, but I cannot tell. He’s always asking for food even though he’s fed 3 times a day and surprise visits are made usually with groceries. Yesterday my mother complained about being sick and warned my aunt she couldn’t deal with it this weekend. Well my aunt didn’t listen and still called with some crazy complaint he had and they ended up yelling at him over the phone. ( he can be manipulative ) and the. My mother got more sick. For example - he’ll call for food or to get some document or money. And when they say “I can’t right now” he’ll cry and say they tossed him aside. My mom has to go down every weekend and give him groceries but she’s unable to today bc she’s sick and he’d been blowing up her phone and my aunt can’t seem to fully grasp “leave me alone for this weekend”. Not to make either sound bad I swear. But what can be said or done to help them. I would drop stuff for him myself but I don’t have a car or a job but I’m looking. Also this may sound mean but because of how he’s treated me and his condition now I don’t think it would eh a good fit for him to return to live with us which is what my aunt wants because he lived there before. He’ll need 24 hour assistance and we live in a tiny box house.
TL;DR
uncle is a stroke victim and is asking for impossible requests to the point it seems he’s taking advantage of his sisters. They’re stressed out because of it. What can be done
