[quote=Anonymous]I'm glad I came across your post. Because I ranted about this exact same thing to my therapist last week. My sibling and their family moved across country ten years ago, most likely with a clear conscious because I was here for my parents. Now that my mother has cancer and my father has dementia, I am the one to drive them to all of their appointments and visit them on a regular basis. My sibling and his family visit once or twice a year, but that time is spent visiting and having fun, when really I could use their help with the maintenance of my parent's house. Everything is manageable now, but it will get more complicated/time consuming as my parents get older (they're currently 77). I'm single and have a ton of things I'd like to do with my life, but now I feel stuck. So freakin stuck. [/quote]
