[quote=Anonymous]What do you feel so guilty about? As the PP says, the end is coming and there's nothing to panic about. Stand down. If they need you, they'll reach out. If they manage on their own, let them be. Don't call and inquire all the time. And yes, if you can go there for a week and do it all (if it's feasible at all depending on living arrangements, if you're "allowed" to take over) then do it. Otherwise let the game play until the end. I'm saying this as someone who has a mom on another continent, I left on purpose as soon as I could (to grad school on a stipend) and have seen similar playing out over the last years (including having to research something "urgently" only to be told it doesn't matter). Your mom and sister are co-dependent and enmeshed, after all, she helped with her kids, so let her be in charge. You really need to detach for your own sanity. [/quote]
