Yikes.
Well, there's no law that says you have to answer the phone.
If you do, start by saying, "I'm so glad you called!" Then begin a long litany of what's going on in your life. Spare no details.
Then wrap it up with, "Thanks for listening. Gotta go!" Click.
She'll get the hint.

What good advice. It made me laugh. Thank you for that. I thought when I was reading it, why don't you block the phone number..hence no ring for a call that does not lift you up! I don't mean to be callous but, sometimes it is just another thing for us to do with alot of caregiver responsibilities. Again, thank you!
