They usually stay abroad but came earlier this year to help us out. They were supposed to go back a couple of months ago but my mum hurt herself and therefore can't fly at the moment. She's in lots of pain and it's not really getting better. We don't know when she'll be able to fly again.
It's been 6 months now and it's impacting on dh and my relationship. We need some space to sort our relationship out. He isn't asking them to leave as he knows she can't fly at the moment. Like him I'm also getting cabin fever. They are very helpful and generous (especially before my mum's accident) but they aren't the easiest people to live with either.
We aren't asking them to leave but I'm just so sad this has happened. And I don't want to deal with the future and come up with s permanent solution in case they can never live on their own again. And I worry about both of them burning out. I feel guilty because I know my mum is in lots of pain and needs support now. I feel guilty for having asked for their help. I feel guilty for making dh live with them. I'm just venting really. I know iabu. I just keep thinking if this hadn't happened everything would be ok but now we are all sad and stressed.
FFS I'm forty but I feel like a little child that has suddenly been asked to grow up.
