This was like the first half of a bad Intervention episode.
Still can’t believe that anyone thought that she could go back to work. On a podcast of all things?! On an audio-only media?! Even if the manage and publicist were gold diggers they were most of all delusional. She doesn’t need a manager, assistant, publicist. Fire them all. She needs to be put in full guardianship (if it’s not already the case), rehab and memory care.
Unfortunately, all she can get is sober. There’s no getting better. Hoping that she is permanently in a facility that can provide care for dementia AND substance abuse. Any money she still has should be put into her care.
