My Mother is 92 and lives with me and my husband. Her caregiver of 2.5 years has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer; very agressive. She has been a big part of our family for over two years. My Mom asks for her every day; throughout the day. I haven't even been able to think about trying to find someone else and have taken some time off of work. How can I best help my Mom. So far I've just told her that she's sick and is going to live with her son. She is hurting and I want to help her.
Losing my hair from stress now.
respite care is available through hospice, however having it avail., and having mom go there is a Dif story....
good luck
