Default please pray for my folks

My folks are in their early 70's and desperately need the Lord's help. Dad has parkinson's disease and Mom has been a great help to him for years. She started struggling with anxiety earlier this year and now she can't hardly function. She knows she needs help but won't take her medication and cancels all her appointments at the last minute. Dad tries his best to help her but it's more than he can handle.

My brother and I live 3 and 6 hours away and both feel totally helpless right now. She really needs to be evaluated in a mental hospital but unless she's suicidal or a threat to someone else we can't force the issue.

Please pray for healing, wisdom, strength and guidance as we go through this trial. Thanks.
