[quote=Anonymous]Hugs op. I hear you. I have Parkinsons dad/dementia mom plus I have kids in middle and high and a very demanding job. I’m so tired. Feels like there will never be a time I can relax. I keep fantasizing about retiring so I can focus on family but we need me to work for 8 more years to cover college and retirement. The next decade is getting kids launched and dealing with parents illness/decline then I’ll probably get 5 good years and drop dead. It struck me that neither of my parents took care of their parents at all. Their parents died quickly in theirs 60s/70s. My mom really never worked and never helped out as a grandparent so she has absolutely no clue what my life is like and expects me to visit daily and be at her beck and call. I just can’t and neither can you. [/quote]
