Helena, have you got some time and space to step back and think about what the consequences of that would be for you, personally/emotionally?
Are you even subconsciously hoping for that scenario to arise so that you don't have to confront what is clearly a very difficult situation in terms of gaining the best care for your mother?
I'm not asking the questions to challenge you and make you feel uncomfortable ... but I hear not just your words but the anger and frustration behind them ...
Let rip, if you need to... we're all here to help each other.....
