[quote=Anonymous]I personally cared for my parent for about 6 months before he died. From experience, I can tell you that if your mom requires 7 hours of care per day now, it is only going to increase (unless she is recovering from surgery and will become stronger). Your sister is doing a loving thing, but she shouldn't be working 7 days per week at your mother's (burn out). You need a backup plan for 2 days per week plus if/when your sister gets sick. Basically, if your sister breaks a leg, this whole plan is over.[/quote]
