If my aunt hurts herself, would it be my fault?

My aunt lives with me. She has balancing problems, and she's fallen like 5 times In the past 2 months. Her brother was in the hospital yesterday because he had chest pains, and he has heart problems, and has had open heart surgery before. She asked me yesterday if I could go to the liquor star to get her some vodka, so she isn't so stressed. She had two shots, and she was shit faced. Later that night she got a call saying he was back home and fine. She got a call a couple of hours ago because he's in the hospital again with breathing problems, so she asked me again if I could go get some vodka for her. I did, because I just have a really hard time saying no, especially because her brother is probably going to pass away soon. I'm afraid she's gonna get shit faced again, and fall and get seriously injured. I realize I'm enabling her, but would it really be my fault if she can't hold her liquor and falls?

Not entirely your fault, but yes a little. She is a grown woman who can make her own choices, but you are aware of her being prone to falling, yet buy her alcohol which is likely to make her fall easily. It would be both of your faults.

Nope. she's a grown up and your senior, if she can't moderate her own consumption that's entirely on her.
