[quote=Anonymous]My 88 yr old mother, stage 6/7 alzheimer has bedsores, and mobility issues. She lives with my family. I am at my wits end. Is it terrible that I secretly hope her bedsores do not heal, despite me taking care of them, and get infected, and that “does her in”? Her quality of life is terrible, as is mine. I also quietly hope she gets covid, and will have a swift end. I feel so much guilt when these thoughts come into my mind. Lately, I’ve been loosing my temper with her. My back and wrists are killing me from having to help her get out of bed to take her to the bathroom. Taking her to the doctor is a huge ordeal, and they really cannot help a lot anyway. I am ready to place her in memory care, but I worry they won’t accept her with bedsores. [/quote]
