I know how shocking it is to see truths like this. If guilting you stops working, she will either start acting nice or stay the same. If she stays the same, curtail your time with her. I know how hard it is. We feel sorry for people who are old and ill but we can't help them if we aren't in a healthy place ourselves. It is best to serve from the heart and not be forced.
That is awesome advice.
