I would like some input as to whether I am overreacting or if we have a serious problem.

This may sound silly to some of you but, believe me, I am totally serious. First, I am off work on disability because of a back injury, so I am limited in what I can do and I don't always have the best outlook because of the pain. My husband's cousin moved in with us about 4 years ago. After his wife died and his only income was social security, he really couldn't make it on his own. He is only 77 but has COPD (still smokes) and has sciatica. He is overweight. He wont follow doctors suggestions or take his medication regularly. He is pleasant enough but limited. I didn't know him before so I don't know if this is just him or if he is in decline. I remember my great uncles. They didn't finish 2nd grade and never went much of anywhere. But they had a great sense of humor, could discuss politics and were interesting people. Cousin will interrupt any conversation and find a way to relate it back to his former home, but his comments are repetitious and boring. He talks about the grocery store there (same as here ) or what Fred Meyer sold that Wal Mart didn't. I could be patient with that, except that I can't have even a short conversation with my husband or friends, ever. But that is actually the least of my concerns. After 3 years of fighting with Cousin, he finally agreed to shower every other day. But, then he will try and sneak around doing it by giving himself a sponge bath and dousing himself in after shave. We installed two handicap rails in the shower but it didn't help. When he does shower, he only puts on clean clothes every other time, that means once every 4 days and he wont wear deodorant. Recently he has become incontinent. He was always bad about cleaning his behind but now he pees himself. I assigned him a chair in the dining room and he has his own chair in the living room, but he will sneak and sit elsewhere when he can. He refuses to wear protection. I bought pads and my husband spoke very bluntly to him and Cousin said he would wear them but he doesn't. He smells. His bathroom is the one that company uses so I find my self cleaning it 3 times each day. I have blankets on the couch and on his chair and I wash them constantly. I cook his breakfast because it is easier and I honestly don't mind because I feed him healthier. He was eating Ramen noodles and cold cereal and breaking the refrigerator doors by leaning on them and breaking dishes. I cook dinner and do his laundry because he cannot get down to the basement or leans on the washer door and has broken it. He pays the power bill but for that he gets his room, all food, laundry, cable TV, etc. I never get a thank you. He still drives but shouldn't. He goes out once a day to the VA to have a drink but otherwise sits and watches TV all day and all evening. We recently took him to another state for a funeral and for two weeks he showered and kept himself clean the entire time. Because of that I don't think he would be considered unable to perform self care activities. When I suggested that the three of us adults chip in for cleaning help, he got mad and said that he could clean. He can't even walk in the house without his cane and uses a walker away from the house. He complains that I won't let him cook or help out but it is more work and stress for me to have him help. I have tried to think of ways for him to feel useful but I now think that it is his responsibility to find things that make him feel happy. He could go fishing, I have suggested water walking at the rec center but he won't do any of it. My family thinks I am being unreasonable and harsh. My husband takes his cousins side because he feels sorry for him and my son says it is up to me to think positive. I am irritated because I think that they are trying to get me to see this situation as normal when I don't think I have to accept someone peeing all over the house as OK. As for Cousin, I have a hunch that ever since we found out that we can claim him as a dependent on our taxes, he thinks that we are getting a good deal. Of course I am doing all the work. Am I over reacting? I can't kick him out knowing that he has no where to go as we are his only relatives. I want to get him into assisted living but I don't know how to do that without his agreeing. I called the county and they said it isn't likely he would be deemed as unable to care for himself. Can anyone suggest something short of kicking him out? Thanks
