I have been my grandmothers live in caregiver for 4 years. She has always had to be the center of attention. It became 10x worse when my mom (her daughter) was dying of cancer. Giving me a hard time for spending time with my mom as she was ā€œmore sickā€ and needed me home. She does all her own ADLs and my son was here. She cried told everyone all her family died, Iā€™m like hello who has been here because no one helps me. She purposely does things like not use her Walker because it upsets me (thatā€™s how she fell and broke her hip not using her Walker) She calls family members tells them Iā€™m nasty. I decided to move away and put her in assisted living. She says she is not leaving her house. (Itā€™s my house I own it and let her live with me) every tiny thing she does annoys me now. Iā€™m grieving the loss of my Mom and my boyfriend who died a few weeks apart. My friends have tried talking to her and she feeds off the attention. On one hand if she dies Iā€™ll feel guilty because I avoid talking to her on the other Iā€™m tired of being treated this way (I see now why my mom wouldnā€™t let her live with her). Growing up she was the best grandmother ever but now having to deal with her every day Iā€™ve become resentful. Not sure what else to do but pack my stuff find her a place and go back to being a granddaughter.
