Having trouble all week functioning,just haven't been able to do the chores,too much like hard work and I've felt weak.Today I am struggling to cope.My mum is 87 years old,blind and confined to a wheelchair,she has carers come in to her,last two weeks she has been getting confused and living her memories,she keeps thinking she is living the life she led fifty years ago,then she gets confused whether she is at home or at the hospital,today she said I took her shoes and cardigan home with me,yesterday she was telling me she was going to work,and where do you work I said and she is talking about a place that closed down 20 years ago.Mum's carer rang me this morning to say she was hallucinating.So I had to ring my narc sister who I am supposed to be 100% no contact with.She was playing the victim saying I have had no life for 15 years,I have been looking after mum and she has had carers in for a year and I still have to spend all of my time up there,I am going to have to sell mum's house to finance her going into a care home,she cries.I feel bad cos there is little I can do to help.I really don't want to have to talk to the narc sister but it is something I have to do for now.I feel angry,sad, fearful for the future.Talking to the narc triggers memories of when she abused me in the past for many,many years.
