Job number 1 is to be supportive of your wife in the situation. Not saying that means you do everything for your in-laws or even need to be involved, that all depends. Just try to be supportive of your wife. If you can help your mother in law or father in law, by all means help where you can. But try to discern the difference between helping and enabling. Not an easy thing to do. Your mother in law will likely need to make changes to her lifestyle etc.
You may want to talk to your father in law and see if this is really what he wants, now that he has moved out. He may be having second thoughts. It is never too late to repair a relationship, or at least try.
Other than that, best of luck to you. You won't be able to solve their problems. I think you know that.
