It's a tough stage of life to deal with. Are you the only child? I had three brothers but I might as well have been the only child. I always wondered how could they not realize that time was getting short. I would think they would want to have this last time with Mom. My Mom passed last year. It had been a long couple years with a broken hip, dementia, cancer and then a heart attack and brain hemorrhage took her. I was so tired too and things got into a terrible state around here, still trying to get things under control.
