I Have Had Enough

I'm taking care of my mom who has Parkinson's and other health problems, and it's starting to get to me. The other day I tried to take her, my grandmom and son to lunch and she blacked out in the parking lot. I knew there were no cars, it's not a busy place... But I dropped my son's hand to run back to her. He's 5 and doesn't want to listen to anything and she was right there, so I ran back. I don't want to make choices like this though. I feel so bad for her. And I feel bad for my son as it's hard on him too. I just feel BAD 😔

Im so sorry youre having to deal with. Is there ANYONE who can help you with your mom? Does the option of "daycare" for EITHER or BOTH of them have any merit? The number one thing youve GOT to do is find "ME TIME" and take care of you too! See if a family member or friend can watch your mom so you and your son can have alone tiem as well......
