My sister has advanced stage pancreatic cancer, and her wish is to be at home and to be cared for by her 24 year old daughter. My brother and his partner feel they could provide better care if she lived with them. This may be the case, but it's not my sister's wish. They are just not listening and keep being rude to my niece and making her feel bad if she leaves her mother alone for an hour or two. I think they are having some sort of breakdown, but we cant get through to them.
