Caring for husband’s 88 yo months ago. Previously cared for my mother after my Dad passed away. She was with us for 5 years and I really miss her. She was an angel compared to this aunt who complains constantly. I don’t seem to be able to help her enough and feel that I am taking a physical and mental toll as a result.
Hi Leslie–So glad you found us! Would you be interested in joining one of our online support groups? The members understand how hard it can be when a care recipient is a bit, shall we say, challenging. The info about our group is here. And, this article about dealing with the endless demands may help, too.
