Sorry for being factual as i don’t cope well when people are showing kindness or sympathy towards me.
Im always anxious using web forums so to keep identity private I've used they/them/partner instead of mum/dad/wife/husband etc.
One of my parents is very poorly, unable to write, doesn’t always know what’s happening. Care home mgr thinks we will have them for Christmas/NY but lucky if they see January out.
I’ve written cards on their behalf to relatives n friends explaining they are too poorly to write them and to soften the blow by young nephew/niece has scribbled their name on each card to ‘help write them’.
My dilemma is cards to my sibling, their family and my partner.
Do I write the card and ‘scribble’ my parents name explaining I got them to sign the card before they became too unwell and live a lie, write them and I sign them on their behalf or, not write them at all.
Trouble is my sibling and family see our parent several times a week.
What’s your thoughts.
Thank you
