My 92 year old mother is visited by me every other day in a residential home.
It is very difficult for me watching her decline.Very frail,poor mobility incontinence and whenever she sees me she constantly complains about the staff and how they care for her. Nothing is ever right for her and I certainly can't please her. and with me she is never happy.The care staff say when I'm away she is smiling and obliging .
I have been her main carer at home before and till now for 4 years .If I as much as say anything to defend myself she accuses me of being difficult and goes into a sulk.I am getting fed up of the situation .I'm afraid the carers will think I'm emotionally abusing her as of late we have not got on.I bought her a dress and she didnt want it saying it was too tight but it didnt look it..I said I would send it back and she went into a sulk again. saying she's all alone in care home but I visit so often.I feel terrible she is there and the situation she is in.
I find it so hard.
