[quote=Anonymous]Oh gosh OP - you need some downtime. If that means hiring someone to help out, instructing your brother to get your mom for a week, having your kids do more - whatever you need to do, do it before you completely burn out. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Is it your mom being there that's the problem - or is it specific things she's doing while she's there? Can you outsource any of it? Is it feasible for her to live on her own or in an assisted living community? What was the plan when she moved in and has that changed? Sending you loads of empathy - and Netflix suggestions, if you want them.[/quote]
