Mel Gibson's dad, who filed for divorce Monday, believes his wife has been abusing him and Mel reportedly came to offer his help. According to reports, Mel and his family have been tending to 93-year-old Hutton Gibson, who is seriously ill with a panoply of ailments. Hutton is taking a slew of medications for his conditions, but reportedly his wife, Teddy Joye (who is in her 70's) believes her husband's family is prolonging his suffering and wants to discontinue all medicines to accelerate his death. She also believes that's what Hutton wants.
It has to be noted that Mel has taken the lead to ensure his father is getting his meds and believes Joye is guilty of elder abuse by her conduct. Sources even state that Mel wants Joye out of his dad's house!
It has to be mentioned that Hutton personally filed for divorce and even signed the divorce documents in shaky handwriting.
