If you don't feel as if you're able to care for your mom now, when she has no real medical issues, don't invite her into your home to live because she's not getting any younger and her level of care will only increase as days and months go by.

If you're troubled by the fact that she won't even comb her own hair or bathe herself, or take her meds when she's just visiting try to imagine how needy she'll become if she moves in. Her "level of care" now is nothing compared to what it will become in the near future. I would caution you against moving her in and work on convincing her to move into an assisted living facility. Tour a couple of places and then go and have a nice lunch out with your mom to discuss it.
