My Days~

My mom has a cna come Mon,Tues,Wed,Sat.So I have to be there on Thurs,Sun.I reality she wants me there everyday for as long as I can stay.Mostly all day.It's hard when you have a family your trying to care for.It doesn't always work out.One suffers.I feel spread too thin.My moods are awful anymore,my heart isn't in it anymore.Mom is really kinda ill when I say i'm leaving or going to be late getting there.I just needed to vent.So taking care of someone long term is really hard. I understand i'm the only thing she has to look forward to but my attitude is getting bad.Some days I just sit and say nothing.I just watch tv.She seems ok with it(me just sitting miserable)I just am to the point I don't understand...

Dealing with someone who is ill is pretty hard and I know you are spread too thin. I know whereof I speak my son has 4th stage cancer and my husband is suffering from Alzhiemers which isn't too bad yet. My son can
be cranky if he wants to, I am cherishing the time I get to spend with him.

Sounds like you being there for your mom means a lot to her, and years into the future you will be glad for the time you spent with her. Looking back, you will marvel at how it was only a matter of months or weeks, but remember how at the time it seemed much longer. Sending warm wishes of encouragement.
