[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are a great daughter, she is lucky. For your health and that of the rest of the family, you must set some limits. How often you see her, how long those times last. How many trips, how far away. She will be disappointed, but she is just one of your responsibilities. You are doing the best you can. That is what we must all do. It will be enough. [/quote] Don't fall into the great daughter/bad daughter trap. I agree you need to set limits and learn to detach. You may never please her. For her brain health she needs social activities outside of interacting with you and for your mental health you need breaks from her. I would look into adult day centers. Is residential an option she can afford?[/quote]
