[quote=Anonymous]It took my dad being in the last year of a terminal illness for my parents to downsize and move. My sibling had lived with them for over a year during the illness and offered to help declutter for an eventual move and he was shut down hard every time. He had to move out of state for work eventually and they decided to move and a family friend came and did EVERYTHING for them. To this day I wonder if anyone knows how much my sibling sacrificed with caretaking with very little appreciation expressed, and how many times he offered to help sort and donate/give away/trash all their stuff. It def looks like we left my parents in the lurch, even though that wasn't the case.[/quote]
