[quote=Anonymous]Op I am the sibling who does everything and I am also my mom’s least favorite! I tbh k the favorites are so used to being favored and prioritized that they think they and their needs are too important to be interrupted by elder care. Don’t worry about moving her to memory care. These posters who think she will be better off there are delusional. She will just be locked up. How far away is she? Honestly I do think you should keep visiting several times a month. BUT it is fine for those visits to be literally ten or fifteen minutes. The purpose is to check on her so the staff knows someone is looking after her and it makes it harder for them to get away from elder abuse. But you don’t need to linger. Drop in, makes sure she’s not sitting in soiled sheets and diapers and isn’t emaciated, smile and say you love her. Read the newspaper headlines or tell her stories about the grandkids. Then leave [/quote]
