My partner and I live with my 90 year old Mother who has mixed dementia. We had to move in as I'd previously visited 4 days a week but found I had cancer and wouldn't have been able to do this until my treatment finished. I was very lucky and I have the all clear now. My DP is very good and helps a LOT but it's still hard living with Mum and working full time.
We have carers 3 times a day who do her personal care and give her her meals but this seems to have given Mum delusions of grandeur- she spends a lot of time telling us what needs doing in the house and garden- shopping, washing, cleaning, mowing the lawn and hates the word NO.
Is it unreasonable that I get fed up?
