Wow, Dream, I don't really know what to say. It sounds like a wonderful opportunity for them, but for you it's not good. Are you SURE you don't want to go?

I don't know your money/ins. situation, but will you be able to hire a caregiver? It sounds like you'll need someone around more than the sister can be expected to be there.

Oh... "per diem" means per day. It's his expense account, means he gets $100 per day above and beyond his normal paycheck to cover travel expenses. Depending on where you are and what's around you, it can be a great deal, where you make extra money every day because you don't spend it all. OR, if you are going to a remote area where everything costs a fortune, it could turn out to be bad, where he is spending some of his OWN money to survive on.

Well, I wish you the very best of luck. I'm sure you'll figure out an option that makes everyone happy in the end.
