You may not be helping her as much as you think. As long as the situation is survivable for her, she won't make any changes. It sounds like you need to force the changes by not doing those chores for her any more.
That's just my opinion though.
If someone is doing all they can do, and then needs help, that's one thing. When they won't even try to fix things, it's not your responsibility any more. |
She doesn't cook at all. TV dinners, cookies, pastries and fruit it's all i see in her trash when i take her trash out.
She has a walker that is how she moves around, but she can't stand for more than 3 minutes.
When I take her trash out I'm talking about going and take the trash out of the cans she has in the house like her bedroom, her kitchen, her bathroom, her spare bedroom and the back porch. She doesn't have it ready for me to take it out. I have to get it ready and then take it out.
I don't know I guess I'm just going to suck it up and keep doing, because in a way i do feel bad for her.
