Good morning.
I am in need of prayer for my mom and I. This past Tuesday I took my mother to her neurology appointment. While talking to the doctor about her headaches, mental status and unsafe things I have've notice (cooking/ medications) my mother accused me of betraying her for not talking to her about this appt in which I did several times. She thinks that I am trying to take away her independence in which I am not. It really upset me and I had a meltdown in the office. We got into a huge verbal argument on the way home. I spoke to my mother out of line. When we returned back to her home I gathered my thing and left angry, her aide was there with her. When I got home I talked to God, prayed and asked for forgiveness. I LOVE my mom so much to the point I neglect my own health issues. I have MS as well as Fibromyalgia and hypertension. My mother has not been her self for some weeks now. We, her aides and I have been noticing change in her mental status, confusion and not comprehending what is being said to her. I am very concerned for her health and safety. She has lost 12lbs in over 6 weeks in which her doctors and I are trying to address. I am a nurse, inactive at this time due to my own health issues whom have
worked in the Dementia/Alzheimers Unit for 14yrs in which I love doing. I know the signs of the disease and I see some of them them in my mother. Its upsetting when it's a loved one, your feeling really get in the way. I am my mother's sole care giver and provider. I have a sister whom lives in NC and a brother whom lives I Wyandanch that do not provide any help to me in taking care of our mother. It gets over whelming for me at times to the point when I'm lone I just cry. Yesterday me and my mom was alone, I apologized for the way I spoke to her on the way home from her appointment on Tuesday. We talked and I reassured her that I am not trying to take away her independence. All I'm trying to do is find out what is going on and make sure she's alright. I want the best for her and I would never do anything without talking with her first. I also told her that I love her and we gave each other a big hug. She apologized to me and said to me " It's just the 2 of us". It made me sad and feel good at the same time because I do have 2 siblings. I attend and manage all of my mom's doctors appointments with out the help of my siblings. I have so many things going on myself to the point I feel as if I'm going to have a mental meltdown. Everyday and every night I'm praying and I feel that my prayers are not being heard, I feel alone. Sorry for venting on here. I'm just asking all prayer warriors to pray for me and my mother Mae Ravenell.
Thank you in advance.
