[quote=Anonymous]I do a lot for my mom. She lived near most of my family out west, but the altitude was causing her to nosed oxygen. So she moved near me and I am the only local family. It’s a lot to take on. I have teenage kids to, and I know my husband sometimes resents how much time I have to spend with her. She had a health crisis a few months ago, and that’s when I told my family I needed them to come out and help me. So during the crisis, each of my 3 siblings came out for 5 to 7 days to help. It was nice to have a three week break. And by the time the last one left, she was back to living independently. I know this scenario is slightly different, but your husband needs to tell his brother he needs help and needs a break. Beating around the bush won’t get the message across. He needs to be direct and say his family needs a break from caring for their mom.[/quote]
