I don't think I can do this any more. I can take care of mom just fine. It's hard, but I know I am keeping her safe and happy.....it's the siblings that are making me feel it's just not worth it. I think I will die before Mom does. Actually I'm hoping thats the way it goes. No good deed goes unpunished.
If you are either stupid, selfish or in denial....STFU and mind your own business. You want it to be your business? Spend TIME with YOUR Mother!
Ok, I vented, your turn.
Thanks for listening.

Words to kick a$$ by, and one of these days I'm gonna use them on my two SILs.
Oh Boni, you're in a bad place....tied to the caregiving stake and the flames are licking at your heels. It might even reduce you to ashes before it's over, but you're a Phoenix...you will rise again. Capn's right - eff 'em!!! You're a strong person, a survivor. You never would have made it this far if you weren't. Worthless siblings are just that. Worthless.
