[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 706579, member: 1233"] You do not get paid enough for this BS. You are on the HIPAA forms. Call the doctor and ask when the evaluation is if you truly want to know. Otherwise, tell the family that if you do not have RESULTS from the evaluation, in writing, by a date of your choosing, that you will notify the DMV. Then let it go. There is no point in a meeting. IF you go and they get nasty, get up and walk out. It is very simple. You stand up, point your feet to the door, and walk, one foot after the other. You don't argue or fuss. You walk out because you know they are being idiots and that you are simply doing the right thing by telling them that your father needs to be evaluated because his alzheimers is too bad for him to be driving without an evaluation. If he won't get evaluated by his doctor's chosen professional, then the DMV needs to know. It really is that simple. You are saving your father's and CQ's lives even if they don't want to admit it. They may want to make you into the red headed left handed step child, but only you can willingly step into that role. I say don't do it. You made yourself clear. Don't put up with the nonsense, and if your instincts tell you they are setting you up to be bashed by the whole family, then you are busy during that meeting. Sorry, but you have a commitment that month. After all, you do go to the doctor appts for your dad, so if you can't also do evening meetings, well, sorry. You already gave your time to the cause. Let your siblings give their time. You have not destroyed your father. They are being a bunch of drama queens. It is a bunch of childish behavior from people who should know better. I think your siblings don't want to admit there is a problem because they might have to do something about it other than blame you. Set a deadline to have written results from the Occupational Therapist (OT) or the doctor sent to you. Otherwise, follow through and call the DMV. But also call the doctor and ask when the appointment with the Occupational Therapist (OT) is, or what Occupational Therapist (OT) they recommend and call that Occupational Therapist (OT) to see when the appointment is.
