[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sister was wonderful in caring for Dad, who died after a relatively brief but painful illness. We all did what we could. Now Mom, in her nineties, is failing. Sister says, "I'm not doing it again." I understand her, and am willing to partially pay for help and visit when I can, given my full-time job and troubled teen. My brothers are apoplectic. How can she say that, what kind of daughter says that, etc. I'm with her. Thoughts? Mainly concerned how to deal with my brothers, who are really out of control. They live far away (Texas) and visiting is harder for them. They're also not that close to Mom. This is uncharted territory for me. [/quote] Just ask them where they were when your mother died. If they still keep talking tell they to pull their weight.[/quote]
