Mom has been in NH for 2 years now; I live the closest and so visit the most--at least 2/3 a week--and I still have to force myself to go every single time; still feel guilty that I don't go more often, still hate myself when I have to say goodbye to mom and leave on each visit...and now that Christmas #3 in NH is looming, feel dreadfully sad and hopeless.
Does anyone else feel this way?
It's better to give than receive...Try to look at the visit as something you are doing for Dad, not something for yourself.
I struggle with guilt every day..I hope I can learn from my own advice. LOL
Don't feel bad..
