She is mean, doesn't ever stop complaining! It's really killing me! Im giving my life! It is never about me! I'm slowly getting sicker n sicker! And my kids are chronically sick they need me as well! I CAN DO this I just need a regular break! I wish she would see what I do for her! And give me the respect I deserve! She's lonely yet I'm here and she treats me like I'm nothing! I want her to be happy I love her! But i wish she would stop killing me slowly she knows what my kids & I go through! She knows I want her with me! She also knows the poor me! She tells lies about my husband/me! I don't understand her! All this Without little to NO help from my sibling which lives in the same town! I really am beginning to dislike my sibling & HER family for breaking mom's heart daily! Why can't mom see that I am here for her! So be nice! Going crazy! My heart continually hurts! I'm physically getting sicker! I can't afford to be sick my kids, my husband & mom need me! Any advice to stay sane!!!
If your Mom has dementia then that would explain why she is acting that way. It is all part of having a broken brain. There isn't anything your Mom can do to change what is happening to her.
There is also the adult/child dynamics, where once again you are the "child" and only Mom knows best.
As for the lies your Mom is telling, again that is the dementia talking, or maybe your Mom has an Urinary Tract Infection as that can also mimic some traits of dementia.
If Mom's issue is memory loss, scroll down to the bottom of this page to the blue section.... on your left you will see ALZHEIMER'S CARE.... click on that and read all the information given in that section. Hopefully some of the fine suggestions will help.
Took her to drs she is depressed/sad. :( One day I will be gray and I would like to think my kids wont forget me. To answer your questions she is disabled, hurt back, diabetic,
& thyroid issues. My children have Renal Issues, TSC and Autism.
Venting helps.
Thanks again. :)
