New Year's Eve Drama

On New Years Eve my boys went to spend the night with my parents, and as I mentioned before my older brother has some mental issues. He sometimes isn't very stable and he has been on and off of drugs his whole life. Thus dealing with him is always a roller coaster ride. On New Years Eve, while my boys where at my parents he came to my parents house, screaming and hollering, my mother let him in because she wasn't exactly quite sure what was going on, it was 2AM and they had all been sleeping, after he came in he continued screaming and creating an unimaginable scene, my brother is a very large man, and walking around screaming at the top of his lungs could scare just about anyone. My 2 boys had to witness this and my parents had to call the police three times before they finally arrived! Things of this sort have been on and off with my brother "B" for years now, but according to my mother this was the worst she has ever seen, and with my two boys there who had to see it. In speaking with my mother I explained that the risk was to high to let the boys stay over there anymore if she continued to open the door and let my brother in, he needs help and it's a battle to get the government to help. They did take him and put a hold on him for 72 hours and I am hoping this time they will finally put him somewhere he can get therapy and assistance he really needs. If they let him out my parents have agreed that they will not open the door anymore and immediately call the police if he does show up at their house.

It's really sad because sometimes, even for weeks he is fine my "normal" brother, but I can't take the risk each time he goes over there, my children need to be safe, and as my parents are getting up in age, they need to be safe as well. It's time for my brother to get help, because we can't help him, and we can't be around him, it's dangerous.

At this point I am little numb to it, I know we can't do anything and we have been dealing with this for along time, but what do you do when even the parents can't help? I know my parents love my boys so much that it would be painful if they couldn't go over there and spend time, but I need my parents assurance that they will not let my brother in. I really do hope after all these years and the medical/prison/arrest history, they will get "B" the help he needs. We will see.
