They're blaming me for causing my mom stressful moment, I am the one working on her lab test, medicines, and blood transfusion. They still calling me even if I'm resting. They keep sending me text about this and that. And I'm tired. Do they still know I am sick as well? That I need more time for myself. I'm tired working for her and still no appreciation. And I'm still hearing them blaming me. And mother is so insensitive about that ever since. When she was still okay, I work for myself and I'm not depending on them. From food to my medicines, even taking care of the two kids. While she just sit there, watch tv the whole day. Until now she's irresponsible mother. She needs to work for herself so that she will recover. But it looks like she still wants to be pampered. Sometimes I hate my life. I should be the one blaming her because I got this sickness from her. Photo is mine.

I'm sorry to hear your mother being insensitive to your feelings. No one want's to feel unappreciated. Perhaps you should give her the book "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho?

@JustBhem _I hope your mother-daughter relationship improves. Old people tend to be intractable and irritatingly annoying sometimes. I know because I'm one.

@josie_ That's what my Aunt said to me. That is why even if I'm tired I try my best to play the role of the eldest. I keep praying she will realize that I'm doing the best I can.

That is awful they are all treating you like that? You are sick as well they need to be concerned about you as well. You and your mother both have the same medical problem?

If she's able to take care of herself, then make her do it. You do not have to do so much for someone who can do for themselves.. and there's no reason to feel guilty if you don't.

I don't what will I do in that situation. Oh, reminds me when we were taking care of Grandma. But let me tell you that you're doing GREAT for helping your mother @JustBhem . It would be negative to just leave and walk away giving in to their hateful remarks, but you chose to sacrifice and that's something they can never do. Perhaps when you die, they will regret the things they said and done. But for now, do the best you can. She did gave birth to you and you owe her that at least. LIke they said, be strong.

@JustBhem being sick should not be a reason of indifference among family members. if it is so, then i would also be ostracized by my family, but it is not for me.

It's tough time and such times doesn't stay for longer period. Hope everything will be fine soon. I don't know your life and I think I don't have the right to say anything but no one can be the reason of someone's pain.
