Hi all,
It's been a while since I posted anything but I can't get an appointment with a therapist until September and need some help.

So here's the problem. My aunt was diagnosed with a brain tumor and I took her into my home to try to help. Recently her condition has become much worse, to the point I feel she needs constant care. I can't do that as I have to travel for work.

I went today to start the paperwork to get her Medicaid so that she could afford a nursing home. Came home told her the news and she flipped. Called me all kinds of names and said things that you can't take back. Threatened to call the cops on me and have me charge with elder abuse because I can't take care of her. Now I'm at the point of trying to have her removed from my home. I'm scared to go home because I think she will fall, call the police, and blame me. I'm sleeping in a hotel because I don't want to be verbal abused right now.

Am I wrong for saying I can't do this anymore? Am I wrong for wanting peace in my own home? The home that I pay for but I'm not in right now? Her and other family members treat me like their personal ATM for any and all problems but then scream at me when I say enough. Am I wrong for wanting to be free from the negative? Thanks for listening (well, reading).
