[quote=Anonymous]So sorry, OP! To add to what the PP said, you may want to look into a patient care coordinator or patient advocate. There are professionals who serve as point people to coordinate needs during these times. That way, it’s not all on you, your mom has her care needs met, and when you visit, you are spending time with your mom, not taking care of logistics. One of her friends or someone at her church could also be a point person for meal trains, a visit schedule, transportation, shopping, etc. Also, bring your kids to see her. That’s what she needs most of all. You have the gift of foresight, and resources. Your future self will thank you for setting things up now. Sending you hugs. [/quote]
