Mum has been in care since May and is still constantly asking when she's going home. It's difficult to deal with the constant questioning. Seeing her is not easy.
Some weeks ago there was a social evening for family and friends. I went because I wanted Mum to have someone there - siblings informed but "away" (sister was at home, 4 miles away from CH), brother (seemingly) disinterested.
There's a garden party today and the CH has made a huge effort for it to be bright and happy - I was there yesterday and saw the preparations being made. Told Mum about it, but didn't show any interest. Mum asked about Brother (he last saw her 4 weeks ago ...), saying she hadn't seen him for some time. I dealt with it, making excuses for him ... I told brother and sister about garden party last week, saying I thought it good for Mum to have one of her children there ... sister has gone away so no show, rang brother last night - said he won't be going because he has friends coming for the weekend (couple of hours out of the day? No chance) but will try and go tomorrow ...
I'm so sick of this - I've seen Mum 4 times this week and will go later today after work to make sure she has a family member present.
Don't get me wrong, I'm no saint and certainly don't claim to be the perfect daughter - just a human being with, I hope, some sense of humanity.
I would like an honest response as to whether I'm unreasonable, not one to make me feel better. I need to get it right in my head.
