[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP. It is very hard. You post once every few months with the same frustrations, which is understandable because this situation isn’t fixable. You get the same advice, though, which is to stop doing what you are unable to do. You don’t have to go out to save your parents and sister. That means you will have to manage your own feelings of guilt and helplessness. Your mom doesn’t want to make decisions, which means events will make decisions for her. You’ve explained that to her again and again. It isn’t working. These are your tools: “That sounds hard, Mom. What do you think you will do?” “Wow, sis, that’s a lot. How are you holding up?” “I won’t be able to come out now. I will come for a few days over Thanksgiving. I miss you, too.”[/quote]
