My aunt is a 53 year old 
And had Back surgery 4 months ago, herniated disc and is in lots of pain.
She was taking 3 oxy’s a day and now has been weened off slowly on half a pill a day. 
Her aunt died about 6 weeks ago &amp; she got into a state of depression than I’ve ever seen from anyone. 
She Won’t eat, she wont drink water
Sleeps all the time.
Very weak and incoherent, She goes to the emergency room and visits her primary soxtor multiple times a week and no one knows what to do for her. 

I wanted to reach out to fellow redditors and ask for advice for my uncle who’s currently also in a state of depression from watching his wife wither away.
