[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 667995, member: 19586"] Hi. She is training to be a Paed surgeon and has one weekend off a month sometimes. I have decided to go away for a week in October to see if all is ok in my own home and start the car etc. the problem is that I worry so much. Before I came to help she was depressed and not eating and not looking after her dog properly. Since I came she is well and eating properly and able to deal with her very tough job. If I leave I will simply worry myself sick each day and if anything happened to her, I would blame myself. I guess I am saying I feel I have to stay with her but need to know how best to handle the situation. She comes in from work some nights a little early, say by nine and if I am watching tv, she will turn the sound down so low I can't hear it and if I say anything she says she has to study and it bothers her. That is fine but why could she not simply ask me to turn it down a little and I would, instead of just doing it and saying nothing? Is this me being petty? I pack a lunch for her every day and always make sure there is food for her when she's home. I pay for all the groceries and this leaves me without anything for myself. She says she has to use her money for legal fees............. [/QUOTE]
