I,m quite new on here, I wasn't expecting all the games etc on this forum. So I don,t know if I,m supposed to ask this But I will anyway.
is anyone else coping with the demands of elderly parents, and how do you cope? I,m 60 myself and I know they have no one else to ask but I,m getting completely drained by it. There are no other family to help. It's just things like shopping, repairs, ordering things, arranging house insurance, paying bills, queries on pensions, banking, phones, they want me to visit daily. Panicking if I suggest taking a holiday..it's constant...and I,m just so tired.
I feel I have to do it as I,m a Christian and they have no one else. I,ve prayed and prayed for strength, but I could just cry most days.
Any advice would be very welcome.
