[quote=Anonymous]This is grueling, OP. I’m so sorry and yes, I’ve been in this situation as the only daughter nearby to my now deceased mom in skilled nursing/assisted living and back and forth to hospitals. Set limits. Manage her expectations by proactively deciding IF and WHEN you visit and then if you must, tell yourself you are not staying more than one hour, for example. Set an alarm on your phone and when it goes off, you announce to your mom that you have to leave - then leave. Do not try to coordinate times or plans with her. Just show up. [/quote]
