    Rob, there really are no words.  You are doing a brilliant job taking care of your Adriana, and my heart aches for you.  No one truly understands the job of the caregiver — how hard it is, how emotionally and physically exhausting it is — and no one takes care of them like you would.  I can understand, maybe, her mother not being as physically helpful, but the 21-year-old needs to be taken to the woodshed.  Honestly, I would probably tell the daughter (like I told our 'concerned' relatives) — "You are adding more stress to our lives than making things better.  Either pitch in or you aren't welcome."   My thoughts are with you.
