[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sorry OP. We have not been able to leave our kids with my parents overnight, they are old and have way too many medical problems...My mom has to take painkillers in order to function, after a bad car accident years ago, she has a lot of reconstructive surgery. She is still working from home and has to time her meds carefully so she can be clearheaded during part of the day and still get the rest she needs. My Dad has several chronic health issues. When we go to a museum, he has to use a wheelchair to be able to do the whole exhibit. We did daytime dropoffs when our eldest kid was younger and wasn't too fast on her feet, like an afternoon hike but back for dinner. [b]I guess what I am saying is maybe it is time to shift from being horrified and angry, to realizing you have joined the sandwich generation and your parents are part of your circle of caring. It sounds like Mom will need more help and it will be easier if you approach it from a place of daughter sympathy instead of mommy rage.[/b][/quote] Yes, this. [/quote] +1[/quote]
