*HUGS* My friend.
I hope the situation can work itself out in a way that can make everyone involved happy.
I am not sure I know the details but I understand the feeling of helplessness.
It can be overwhelming, yes.
I still feel helpless where my family members are involved. I can't even think about them without feeling hurt that as old as they are, they still treat me terribly because as long as they do, they have our mother's "love". She moved in with my older brother right after our dad died and he has become such a cruel person that I can't even talk to him anymore. I miss him terribly, but there is nothing I can do but find other things to think about and wish him happiness before he is gone from the earth.
