I feel for you FD, although I can't offer any better suggestions than have already been made. We're in a similar situation with FIL, he has about a $22k/year income, a paid-for home but zero savings, and an annuity that someone sold him years ago.
DW and I have been trying to get him to sell the house and move to a retirement community that he could afford. We kept hearing "wait until spring" from the rest of the family but here it is almost June and no steps have been taken.
I have made it clear to the rest of the family that I have done and spent all that I'm going to. The next crisis he has he's on his own.
