How do you get rid of the guilt feelings of thinking you aren't doing enough for your parent?

DeeAnna Jun 2018
GIG, your profile states that your Mother is in an assisted living and has alzheimer's / dementia. Are you feeling that you are doing the right thing OR are you feeling that you are NOT doing the right thing by having your Mother live at the assisted living instead of living with you?

Guilt is a natural response for a caregiver as we always want to (or feel the need) to "DO MORE". Does your Mother seems happy living at the facility and does she seem to be well-taken care of by the staff? Then you are doing the RIGHT THING.
