[quote=Anonymous]Wow, OP, my father has Alzheimers, and I can't imagine that an adult child would expect to be catered to over the holidays by a parent who is a FT caregiver to someone with that condition. It is an incredible burden, both physically and emotionally, no matter how much help you have. I am totally dumbfounded that you would complain about your mother's negativity and her expectations that you might actually lift a finger to take out the trash. But hey, it's all about you, right? Your need to be treated like a princess on Christmas trumps any responsibility to help or even just be understanding toward your mother as she cares for your dying father. Of all the self-involved, self-righteous, pathetic stories on DCUM lately, you may take the cake. Congratulations![/quote]
