...Read MoreI didn't especially AT ALL want to care for my mother. Even in the "want" sense, I still don't. I hear so much, "well if you don't WANT to do it, then you shouldn't." But WANT is an excuse, an easy out for all those deadbeats. Hope you can break the chain, perhaps some sort of light will shine in your family's situation.
My deadbeat sister, evil sister, thieving conniving porno loving gambling addict alcoholic enabling ...the one who legally challenged me last fall and said it was MY turn to suffer (see previous posts)...she sent me a "homemade" valentine on computer that said I had a heart of gold and was doing a good job caring for Mom. Gee, admit you swindled Mom and lied to her and tried to sink her ship, then send me mylar balloon sentiments like that. or GEE MAYBE SHE'S TRANSFORMED!!
I have actually had three relative transformations in the 8 years of doing this. One niece was "there" already, just needed direction. Another niece came out of years of meth addiction and jailbird boyfriends to become a real spiritual rock. And the third was my formerly deadbeat sister with the pathological liar husband...she actually got GUILTED into helping. Now is supportive.
Anyway, you have your hands full, I can tell. Hang in there.
