[quote=Anonymous]My Mom is 85 lives 2.5 hours away alone ( we tried to get her closer, and she is not budging). Currently in rehab because of a fall and expected to stay 2 more weeks with a slow recovery. She has 5 children. Should all be expected to tag team to care for her, if they have the time and financial means to travel. One of the siblings lives a hour by plane, but resists coming, no kids at home and extremely wealthy, but makes the distance an excuse. This is wearing thin on the others, and I want to know if our expectiations of assistance are realistic. Believe me it is not the money, so what is it? My mother does not want to ask her, since she walks around all day in the house dressed up (heels, jeans) and it makes my Mom uncomfortable asking her for help, but the rest of us are exhausted. What say you? [/quote]
