I am not getting notifications that you have responded to this question. Strange. I am a retired teacher and I know about the coveted summer vacation time. Don't let her take that time away from you. You deserve it carmen! grand chick- My mom did this too. I told her that she had no choice and that she could make her life miserable or tolerable. I backed off and let the professionals take care of the matter. It worked. She became much nicer when she realized that I wasn't going to give up my life to sit by her side and watch TV all day! Good luck.

All of that said...her M-F live-in is taking a two-week vacation starting next week. Time for yet another brand-new caregiver! Wish us luck, and of course good luck to you, Carmen and Linda.
My mom does this sometimes because she wants me not them to take care of her. I have just the opposite problem with one caregiver. She is a nurse and forgets to put mom's meds together, forgets to give her meds or gives the wrong ones. I am terminating her employ and my mother is upset with me because she really likes her. I had the dr. talk to mom about this, maybe it might help if an outsider talks to her. Sometimes they need to hear the facts from someone else. Good luck.
