I would enjoy myself as much as I can. I did that when father recently had pneumonia and ended up 2 weeks in the hospital. We had a 2 month struggle over everything, tension was rising, and him refusing medical help. I called 911, APS, elder lawyer, etc...In the end, when he finally changed his mind, I spent the Whole day at ER because they had no available room. Once he was admitted, I fled! Let the nurses/doctors take care of him....

I, not once, felt bad about NOT spending the nights with him at the hospital. I had 2 wonderful weeks without him! Yes, I felt a teeny tiny bit of a guilt - so I visited him after work, for 30 minutes (his mouth just went on and on and on) and then fled for home. Sigh....That was 2 weeks of Bliss!!!! I sure know how you felt!!!

FYI, she had cancer and was suffering severely so her passing was a blessing.

Absolutely not! You will be able to do a better job when you have some breaks. Can your brothers do this once a week? Do your best to find some way to get some respite, please!
