it sounds like your brother is poorly with schizophrenia. He needs to get mental health help. I can understand why you are worried about him with your parents getting older. I'm sorry, I have read your post but not able to reply in any detail as busy right now, but I would say if they did pass then maybe some kind of supported housing may help him but at 60 they are not old. I am 60 and I consider myself to be still young. XXx
