It has been awhile since I posted here. I have been the primary caregiver to my mother for 10 years. She is 94, and it’s no longer safe for her to live in her apartment. She is likely moving to a retirement home in another city (closer to my sister) in November. I am exhausted, and need to step back from this role. I want to return to my previous city. I have been seeing a therapist for support in taking my life back.
If the home does not work out, I am moving, anyway, and we will arrange for the appropriate level of in-home support. I cannot continue to be held hostage here by an aging parent. I want Mom to be safe, and I want to be free.
You did as much as you can, now it's time for you to get YOU, back
Keep us posted on your journey. 🙂↕️
Good Luck .
