[quote=Anonymous]The more you give the more they expect. I’m in the same situation and I’m about to break too. Hugs to you, just writing here helps for a sounding board. Try not to be drawn into her vortex and keep your boundaries. This is the final curtain call for them and it is a very hard transition and realization. Find things that will keep her busy like a good book - maybe take her to the library, a magazine subscription, Netflix. If she is mobile, definitely try to take her where she could meet others. (Maybe schedule a lunch at a nice senior living facility) the more she is distracted, the better for your health. The day is always better than the night (Sundown syndrome), take walks, sit in the park. You are giving unconditional love and respect to your mother and are a wonderful role model. You are a beautiful soul.[/quote]
