[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 286796, member: 1233"] Sorry you have had such a difficult time. I am glad you were able to take the grandkids to the movie as promised. You are problem right about staying the night. You are the one who pays attention to what she is experiencing. She wants you there as a security blanket. While understandable, it won't stop the things you must do and want to do. Life has to keep marching on. I hope a solution is found quickly and that it is something that is affordable. What had husband's panties in such a bunch? That he had to do something with HIS mother? I would be pushing even more stuff onto my husband if he pulled that. He may not be capable of loving soemone else, as you posted in another thread, but that doesn't get him out of doing what needs to be done. Heck, even my dad had to take care of his mom sometimes. She was in the dining room where the hospital bed was brought in. We lived halfway across teh country and came back to help her and give my aunt time to take a vacation. My dad helped with the aspects of her care that she would let him help with. You may have to push husband to pull his share of the load. It doesn't pay to be too nice. It just gets more stuff dumped on you. Hugs, and I hope the next few days are much easier. Keeping you all in my prayers! [/QUOTE]
