Hi, I just found this site.. I am the main caretaker from my mom. She lives on her own. I do most of the caretaking. Bills,shopping,doctors,cleaning....
I have two sister and one brother but they are all married with familys. I am not so she feels I am the one that should help her.
It is fine when I can but I travel for work and she will not let anyone else help her. She has CODP and bad eye site and a bad heart. Her health has gotten worse. She will not stop smoking. She is very frail . The other day she ran out of the meds she takes. ( I make up a weeks worth at a time. She had the pills in the cabnet but would not tell anyone that her pill case was out of pills. She didnt take her meds for 3 days till I came home from my work travel. Then she tells me it is all my fault. My brother lives next store and is over everday checking on her but she didnt want to bother him and she says it is my fault and I dont care..
She is now gotten very mean and takes it out on me. Making me feel very guilty. My family trys to help but she is mean to everyone.. Any advice ?
Thanks
Best of luck to you.
