Good heavens ~ I think you're doing a MARVELOUS job!! I don't know how much this Pdoc expects of you, but I think the remark unnecessary. Perhaps you should have mentioned that if she didn't fall asleep, she would have HEARD more!!!

You're doing all that you could possibly do. There aren't enough hours in the day to keep a perfectly spotless house -- and who can really do that anyway?? I'm not a gourmet cook either -- in fact I don't really LIKE to cook, but I get by. I try different recipes that aren't too complicated. But it must be hard for you to cook meals when your mother needs you all the time.

Please don't take the comment to heart. You're doing ALL you can. Like I said before, if she didn't fall asleep, she'd hear more. She's just not paying attention!!! You might have to mention that. Stand up for yourself -- you have to be your own advocate. Try not to be intimidated by her. You have rights too. God bless you ~ you're doing a GREAT job. Hugs, Lee
