Your only human. I have lost four people in a years and a half. One was my husband, one my mother, and one my husbands first wife and one her best friend lived behind them I helped care for off and on for 4 years. We do survive and yes your in the right place. Also thier is help, it's a bit of help but also serves as a grounding effect and sounding board for you. Ask her doctors about senior programs, they often can send someone to clean, or shop for you to give you a rest, you always think you can do it , but take a bit of time for you. Look into whats available and take a break. Also volunteers who come to visit and help give her someone to talk to about things she might not want to say to you. Thiers alaway those things she feels like guilty, that you have to help her, stuff she may talk about with someone else to sit with her a hour or two and they develop a repore, and she has an outlet for her grieving while giving you a unhurried trip to shop or a less guilty trip. I remember hurrying and always forgetting something cause I was so afraid to be gone long and leave them alone. You are grieving to, check for local bereavement groups, lots of the churches actually have them. Don't be afraid to get a bit of help. You both need an outlet and both need time to grieve .
Hug
hope that you are doing okay and have a good week. Cindy
Superhero Status
superhero hug for you. Hope your Mom is ok. Most of all, I hope you are ok. In and out's of the hospital are probably more trying on you than anyone. Hang in there.
Hugs, Laurie

Close Caring For Aging Parents
Basicly, I have no solutions.... My mother had emergency surgery May 14th 2009 and two days after she came off the ventalator my father passed away unexpectantly.... My new husband and I moved home to mom's house to help her threw her sickness and grief...... all the while planning for my fathers funeral. My older sister helps but she has children where as I do not.... So the brunt of making decisions, and taking on the task of caring for my mother rest mostly on me.
