I need help. Burned out. Taking care of mother who had stroke. 18 months out of 26 24/7. I’m gonna lose it!

Who can I talk to?

You say she has Dementia and other health problems. The Dementia will only get worse making it harder to care for her. Maybe you need to consider a NH. If she has no assets, then apply for Medicaid.

There are 13 areas in Illinois for Area Agency on Aging that can help you find what services your mom is eligible for. Contact the location that is right for you and ask for an assessment. Do come back and tell us what is going on.

You will find this forum a wonderful source of information and support. Can you describe your circumstances more fully? There are many very knowledgeable posters here, but they need some starting points for discussion.
