My sister is the primary caregiver for our mother. I lived out of state for the last year and a half and have not been able able to help much. Now that I'm back, how do I integrate without my sister feeling I'm trying to take over. She has moved into Mom's house with her family. I want to help out. Is offering to come over 3-4 hours a day so she can have some time to her self too little? I've been gone a long time, please provide some insight, I'm at a loss.......
Take care,
Carol
"Anytime you need a break sis, you just let me know. We can work out a plan & I'll do what I can to help you."
Should be sufficient, & if she doesn't take you up on the offer right away keep asking.
GOD bless you for helping & being willing to learn the ropes.
my sister would offer to do ANYTHING
to help with my parents. All she does is call my
parents and complain about money, with no
regard as to how they are suffering in their
old age. Offer ur help slowly. It will take her time
to realize it's ok to take help. God bless u
for stepping up.
