Ivan, try to visualize 1600 list members scratching our heads trying to come up with solutions to help you! I realize a positive reaction from your own flesh and blood relatives would be worth 100 calls from 'list-buddies" but families ALL have their quirks and personality conflicts. I'm glad that your search has been semi-successful. Can you find people who can stop in every couple of hours, maybe someone who works nearby, rather than through out the day and night? Do you have neighbor who would be willing to have an intercom or remote bell, if you get into trouble? Are you able to sleep through a long part of the night? If not, have you tried medications to help? Are you able to obtain the prescribed medications now? I know, a lot of questions, and no easy answers, but the end results should be worth it all. TTYL, Ken
