I am a 29 year old who is married, my mother is sick and has no one to care for her because my 2 older sisters live out of town. She is now living with us and I do not have a social life or a couple life with my husband. I dont know what to do. I feel angry at my sisters for not helping me out and find this unfair. How can I cope with this crazy situation?
something similar happened in my family with my grandmother. You are doing the right thing. God bless you
You don't say much about yourself (e.g., kids, etc.) nor about your mother's condition(s). If the problem is the distance, place Mom in AL where all of you can visit and share the responsibility. ... Plus you get to keep your husband. It isn't easy being married to 1/2 a wife. If he complains about it at least show him that you're trying to resolve the situation. ... Or one day you'll get a call from him saying he's not coming home. Fix the problem.
Do you have any close friends that could maybe sit with your mom for an evening to watch a movie or something ? I have a dear friend from childhood who has graciously stepped in to run little errands or take mother to minor appts such as hair & manicures. She was always a very vain person, and at 86 she still is !! I've NEVER had a manicure, but mother was ready to call some elder abuse hotline because of it haha. I laugh on the outside but cry on the inside because it's such a hard situation. So if you have any friends you could ask, please do. It really helps. :)
