<prompt> Human: My dad is retired. He is housebound, as well, as he is a diabetic dialysis patient, with poor reaction skills, physically weak, and losing his mind. We are in the USA, Tennessee.But, hes bitter about it. He doesnt appreciate being leashed or having all his decisions made for him. His wife is at wits end, because he treats her like a jailer, but the fact is that without her hed be dead. She threatens divorce, but really, she cant bear it on her conscience, because she knows it would be either a burden on me or a death sentence for him.Recently I found out that in his rebellion, hes been spending an ass-ton of his money on garbage off QVC and eBay. Hes more or less on a fixed income. His wife had drained his account so that he couldnt use it, but now weve found out that he is still able to use his debit card, since it goes into automatic overdraft protection linked to his credit card. Not only is he racking up a huge debt, but this is compounded by overdraft charges.Weve taken his cards away, since obviously he cannot be trusted at all. But do we have any recourse to get the overdraft charges reinstated? Im not optimistic, since hes with a big bank Regions but maybe you guys in PF know of some options?Also, any advice on just helping my dad in general? I sympathize with him, since this is not how he would like to live his retirement, but, hes made a terrible bed for himself, and hes not helping his case at all. Anyone with similar situations have some tips?  <response>: Contact social services for your county and speak to his doctor about other options. There are adult day services where he could be involved with others, and your dads wife might be eligible for respite cared for him so that she can get a break.
