I feel so useless right now

My oldest sis went to "water" our gmaw, meaning giving her her nightly eyedrops, putting water on her sleep apnea machine, and removing her pressure stockings.

Sis got out of the hospital less than a week ago due to an infection in her hip leaving her left foot paralyzed. She can walk short distances with crutches now, but that's it.

When she was removing gmaws stocking a few minutes ago, she noticed gmaws leg was swollen, rock hard, and unnaturally red.
She's taking gmaw to the ER as we speak.


Meanwhile, I'm stuck at home bc of tunnel work and drinking. Even if I wasn't drinking I still wouldn't be able to do anything to help bc of the tunnel, but that doesn't take away from the fact I feel absolutely useless right now.

(Tunnel closes at 8pm and opens 6am every night, with convoys at set times, but none that would work for me at this time even if I was sober. It's almost 9.30 pm here atm. Next convoy is 11.pm)

Sometimes there is nothing you can do, try not to let it get you down.
