Hi there,
I am new to the forum but would welcome any advise or experiences of others. My mother is in mid stages of Alzheimers and is being cared for by my brother. I have lived abroad for the past 20 years, but have moved back with my family to the UK to be closer and, I hoped, be able to offer more support to my siblings. Covid 19 has prevented much physical contact (I live 2 hours away) and relationships between the 3 siblings has now broken down as there is a judgement that I am not doing enough and am sure there is resentment that caring has been left to them. I feel extremely anxious that all contact is being judged and worry about how we will overcome this if I am to see my mother in the future when Covid allows. Any advice or experiences welcome. I cannot sleep at night for the worry of it all, and feel whatever I do will never be enough and will be judged negatively.
