[quote=Anonymous]Op back! Wow I can't believe how this thread has grown! Thank you for taking the time to share your insight. I really appreciate the pp who said stop being a doormat, it struck me. I am not a doormat on a day to day basis what so ever but with the shock and emotion of this cancer I became a doormat, but I'm going to put an end to it. Just to correct another pp I did not quit my job to stay home bc of this situation. I have a 7 month old and after she was born I decided to stay at home, we found out about MIL's cancer about 2 months later. My kids are 4 yrs, 20 months and 7 months and my nephews are 28 months and 11 months. My dc is the only one in preschool. I think my best action plan is to get all the sibs together this weekend and tell them I can not physically and emotionally handle it anymore and it ends May 1st. I think I'm going to make a clean break instead of asking for 1 or 2 days or a mothers helper (although that was a great idea) bc I really need my sanity back. Thanks for really helping me realize it's ok to say no! Worst comes to worst if my sil and bil truly can't come up with childcare cash we will take a collection or something but as far as donating my time it's up.[/quote]
