The caring doesn't stop
How do u deal with knowing you will die a carer?? I have cared for family for decades, mum /dad/brother all of whom are gone now. It leaves daughter with her disabilities. Now at 65 I am starting to have my own health issues. I am angry that I have done so much for so many ( not just family) and now I need help there is none. I am worn out beyond lack of sleep or changing my diet.

I have my own health issues, had breast cancer , I have rheumatoid/osteo etc and last week I fell. really did a job on myself. I sit here house is a mess+++ drives me crazy. if I dont do stuff around here it wont get done. maybe I should try really getting angry at daughter about the mess see if that works. ( all the pain I am in now doesnt help but sheesh u should see the place.). and we have a realtor inspection coming up, they do inspections on rentals every three months here.
