I feel like I am at my wits end. I live with my almost 87 y/o mom. It's horrible to see her slipping both mentally and physically. She also has so much pain in her knees that sometimes it is unbearable for her. She really seemed confused tonight. I seem to be the one that has to take all this on because I am the only one not married which I don't mind because I love her but sometimes it is overwhelming. When my dad died 2 1/2 years ago after 66 years of marriage, things changed. It's been so hard on my mom. She is pretty much stuck in the house all day until I get home. My siblings come over at times but I basically am with her every day. I am just having such a hard time seeing her slide. It is breaking my heart. Please pray for her and I. Thank you. C
