My mother is 94, has had 24 hour care after hitting her head trauma in May. She has never wanted me or been attached to me. In fact this has been a very emotionally abusive relationship for me. My aunt who took me in as a teen can testify that "she always was mean" to me.
Please advise
I hope you can detach from this situation and do what's right for both of you.
P.S. Just wondering why you have your resume on your Profile page here on the site?
I have made it clear to both my parents that I will not provide any form of hands on care, in home care etc. I will help in sorting out finances as I am good at that, but only if I am provided with the information and can do it at my home in my time frame.
So, are you asking for advice on caregiving for your mother or thinking this is an employment site? There really isn’t a question in your post or much information. As a person, who according to your resume/profile, is very well-versed in the medical field, I’d think you realize that caring for your mother who has never really been a mother, is to say the least, not a good idea. If you are not caring for her now, don’t start. If you are, get out. You must have contacts who can help you find alternate care for her.
I would not sacrifice for this woman. I may help her find help but I would not do hands on care for her. Your future is important. If u have family, they come first. See, I believe in what goes around, comes around. This is Moms "come around".
