It was be great to have a place to go that was for people who are taking care of a parent. As you've probably read I am taking care of my mom. It's TOUGH to do and it's mostly by myself.

My sister who lives about 40 miles from us says her station in life is to be a "mother and wife" and she doesn't have time to help.

She tells me that I had nothing else going on and since circumstances are as they are with the house I am the one who should be taking care of my mom!

She as well as my other siblings don't have time for her. They don't visit or call or anything. They just ask me occationally how she's doing and don't even bother to ask my mom herself!

They're all laying out waiting for the inheritance. They don't figure they need to do anything for my mom except just lay out and wait for her death. It makes me sick!

But it would be nice to have a place to vent and get ideas too while I'm still able to take care of my mom. I am looking into nursing homes right now but haven't been satisfyed with any of the ones I've seen yet. I hope I'm seeing them in the real light and not the "guilt" light and nothing is going to be good enough because of the guilt trip my mom is putting me on about it right now.
