[quote=Anonymous]Hang in there, OP. It sounds like you have the wheels turning to get more benefits and support. Along with the VA benefits, has your Mom started getting social security? Is disability a possibility at that age? Medicaid? I would see if you can get an aid for one day on the weekends too and/or file for FMLA at work. That's unpaid leave, but my mother used it to have one day off a week for a long time during a crisis situation with my grandfather. Keep daycare and the aid, and spend that day to hunt down services, schedule doctor's appointments, etc. Are you working with a social worker or elder attorney for any of these things? That may be worth it just to get more services sooner. My best to you--what a terrible situation to be in.[/quote]
