I feel my own Mother is left out so much because I am caring for my mother in law. I really don't have any help with her. My husband and sons work long hours. By the time I can go see my mom, either she's in bed already or i'm DONE for the day. Her daughter lives out state and my brother in law is to busy for his mom. My husband is usually off on sundays,but sometime me and my mom cant get together. My sons work with my husband but they are all together at work at the same time!! She doesn't even want to be with friends anymore. My mom does come here, but I know she gets bored and just wants to be alone together. I feel my own mom is left in the dust. My mom says she understands but I still feel VERY bad. Any good advice?
Take care,
Carol
Also, if the time comes where she does need some financial help (for a nursing home, for example) dementia alone is a qualifying impairment.
