Man, I can relate to this. I took care of my mother the last 3 months of her life and it was hell. I couldn't handle it physically, mentally or emotionally and I was all alone - no one to help me. I was put in a situation that I was not able to do well. And it was only for 3 months!!! I don't know how a person can continue to do it.

And the guilt - yes! I was even hoping my mother would die soon because it was too much for me. Yes, I understand guilt.
