I moved in with my mom. I am her only daughter. I have 2 brothers who live out of state.
I have my daughter come in every Sunday for 8 hours so I can go see and be with my husband. He is taking care of our house and pets.
I also have a volunteer come in for 4 hours on Tuesday's so I can go shopping.

Hello @baney Nice to e-meet you here on Mayo Connect even if it is due to some terrible circumstances. I am sorry to hear of your mom's need for caregiving. It is wonderful to read that you have some care assistance each week! That is so important for you and awesome that you have those resources available! That is also terrific that your husband can manage the 'home front' and the pets! I bet they are really happy to see you when you get home too!

If I may ask, what is your Mom suffering from?

Strength, courage, and peace!
