[quote=Anonymous]If my sibling's declaration of decline was real there is no way possible to have survived for over 15 years. This is ongoing with various illnesses, tests and such and a topic of discussion each time I call. But, I still call from time to time and I listen. I just do so dispassionately. It's not that I don't care, it's just that there is nothing I can do so I don't get emotionally involved. BTW...unlike your mother, who seems to only do this during episodes of illness, there are those where it is 24/7/365. Perhaps you can balance her episodes and be grateful it isn't so often and also forgive your father for being a kind of asshole. I do believe that your resentment of him that makes it more difficult to deal with the issues around your mother's illnesses.[/quote]
