I have searched and searched for additional time. 4 hours a week just is not enough time when caring for my mother 24/7 I work full time as well, I have no financial backing to pay for any respite. I am the sole income in the house hold, my mother receives no money at this time, I have applied for ssi. But this process takes forever, How do I obtain more time to ensure I stay healthy? I am feeling really frusterated and need to take care of myself, before I have health issues. If anyone has suggestions please help.
