I live in Polk Co. FL. I am the sole caretaker of my 85yr old Mother, who has either dementia or the beginnings of Alzheimer's. I have been doing this for 5 yrs, 24/7. I have no friends, no outlet, and I am very depressed. I moved from NJ to care for her. I have an older sister, but we do not speak, and she cannot accept that our Mother has dementia. Once a year, when she goes to visit. She either ends up in the hospital, or comes home a mess. Last year they came down here, took her back up, made her change the will so that I would not get the house when she passes. Sister is executor of trust and can allocate funds anyway she chooses now. I'm just lonely and overwhelmed.
