My mother had cancer and I took care of her myself. My sister wasn't involved, and when I called on her for help she was too busy or didn't have money. Yet she was going out drinking and partying and having fun. We were 20 when Mom was diagnosed, and 21 when she died. I dropped out of college, took time off work and almost never left the house while she was ill. Its hard and so draining to go it alone. The last 3 months of moms life I ended up drinking heavily when she went to bed.
