[QUOTE="Steely, post: 412057, member: 3301"] Janet - I am quite fearful of our family dynamics going to hell in handbasket, as well - even without Matt. Today my parents blasted me with - oh - we thought we wanted you to come up this week - but now we think that would be too much for you! WHAT? Too much for me? I told you I wanted to come up and help. Well, we just think you will get burned out. Oh - because I am a small child????????? ACCCCKKKKKKKKKK So now I have canceled the whole trip to Oregon.....I mean - if they don't want my help - than far be it from me to impose!!!!!!!!!!! All I have ever done is try to help them. It was always Heidi that was the difficult child about everything, throwing tantrums, and stomping out. I am the stabilizer - so why would it be too much for me????????? Yes, my feelings are hurt - and I am mad. And I know it is all just beginning. Last night I asked my Mom if she was going to go to a support group for caregivers, or a dying partners group or something - and she was like - "well no, um, I am fine. But what are YOU going to do?" ME??? I have not been married to him for 47 years Mom - this is a little different. :groooansmileyf: [/QUOTE]
