[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 677067, member: 19522"] Hi Alice, welcome to the forum. I am very sorry for the pain of your situation. It is heart wrenching to go through. This is tough. It reminds me of my husbands uncle, who depended on his daughter for help. She was a drug addict, and while she did take care of her father, she also robbed him blind. I am so sorry, Alice, for the loss of your daughter. Three months after a diagnosis, what a shock and a difficult thing to deal with. I am sorry. This is hard. No one deserves to be mistreated. I imagine the atmosphere in your home is very stressful. I have been through this with my d cs. They were very moody and controlling. It was easier not to speak with them. Of course, this is a manipulation. As long as they lived with me, this would not change. I know you see this. I think counseling will be an excellent thing for you Alice, not only will you have help, processing all of this, it may be a way that you will get help with resources to help you move. I am sorry, this is no way for you to live. Our home is supposed to be our sanctuary, not a place to be walking on eggshells. Many have found here, that our d cs fault us for everything under the sun. It is not true. It is a way to get what they want, which is free rein to go off the rails. I am hoping Alice, that through counseling, you may be directed to resources that could be of help to you. I think your idea of downsizing and finding a senior apartment is awesome. Please be careful of placing ads, though, there are unscrupulous people who take advantage of seniors. Word of mouth is good, if you know folks who have had reliable help, or church organizations. As you think this through and find ways to achieve this, I am sure you will be more at ease, and have the peaceful life you deserve. You have value and you matter. Stay with us dear, and keep posting. More will come along and offer support and share. You are not alone, we are all on a hard journey, together. (((HUGS))) leafy [/QUOTE]
