[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, this is OP. Thanks for all the responses.

The question was not "help me determine if I am inventing care tasks", but "there are time-consuming admin tasks that can be done remotely. Given that due to my proximity to mom my family is already taking care of [b]some errands for mom (think bring in heavy groceries, clean gutters, mow lawn, IT help),[/b] it makes sense to split some of the remote tasks (think taxes, fin assistance paperwork, fin planning, assisted living research, insurance paperwork - it's a lot and she cannot do it herself).

I mainly care to establish a precedent going forward that I am not the default person to take care of all physical and admin needs. There is some helpful advice there - thanks for that. [/quote]

Use some of the money that your brother sends to order through instacart, hire a gutter cleaning service and lawn service (could probably find one company that would do both), etc.
Your brother doesn't have time, but is apparently willing to contribute financially.[/quote]
