Im sure I am just having a bad day extremely tired and emotional, wondering if I can do this, and not wanting to admit defeat. Mum has had her diagnosis for 6 years and is late stage now. She was admitted into care last year but became so upset I moved her to live with me and my children. My mum goes to day care twice a week and I do have a respite week coming up. She night wakes and has become increasingly more incontinent and I do absolutaly everything for her so am exhausted, this is so tough to deal with. I recently lost my dad to cancer which was a huge shock and very quick and young too. Im sure I'll feel better tommorrow. I just miss the pair of them soooo much.:(

Hi Eclair,sorry to hear you are having such a rough time of it.
Have you and mum had a recent assessment done?It sounds you both need a bit more looking after.
Hope you feel brighter soon,kind regards,Angela.

Thankyou

Thanks for the kind words...like I have read so may times before take each day. Yesterday I could do no right! But then we probably all have experienced that! Today has been beautiful...had a lovely day with mum really all just got on top of me. My lovely husband let me get an early night and he popped mum to bed and following a great night sleep all is rosey again...I guess everyone at times doubts themselves and the tiredness gets to us...thanks again x
