I am buried in my guilt right now too. This dread I have of mom coming home is making me feel like an awful daughter. And the fact that I am bringing her home is making me feel like an awful mother and wife. I pray every day and know that the right answer will come when the time is right. <br />I know you are feeling torn right now, but I think your mom is going to be fine - be thankful you did it while she still has her strength and energy to be involved in activities and not be confined to a bed where she will waste away. You picked a beautiful place for her. And as long as they think you'll be popping in and out - her care will stay a priority. That's how it works. The squeaky caregiver wheel gets the attention and best nurses!<br />Stay strong. And listen to your son!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15499675422244801039noreply@blogger.com
