How are things with the sister?  Has she realized she needs help yet?

Nope, and I swear my parents are the biggest enablers, EVER. I've had to just kind of take a step back. She doesn't want help. And I do - I can't be around her right now.

She is getting help and in treatment, but that is nothing new. I hope for my parents sake, and hers she can pull her s h i t  together, but until I see that happening, we are taking a little break from them.

Thanks for asking

Good idea on your part.  I know my nephew is much younger and wasn't yet entrenched in his addict lifestyle, but it honestly took just about all of not giving a crap about what he did or where he was for him to realize his issues. Once there is no one around to support you in your bad behavior, which is really what an enabler does, you either change it or you disappear.
