My aunt who is 87 her dream has always been to live in the country
Iam her, only family member .She is in fair health, lives on a small income, owns her small 1 bedroom house.Has home care twice a week . She lives an hour from me. I call her almost daily and visit her weekly to do errands etc.etc. But she has been begging me to make her dream come true.( for us to buy a house in the country) But due to my oldest child still in school (8th grade) and my husband's job and money situation we find it impossible to relocate.(she will not agree to move away from her area) I love my aunt dearly but trying to explain this all to her, is just impossible. She states she understands, then pressures me even more to move. Her short time memory is failing she at times repeats herself over and over.(which i fully understand this is due to her age) At times i feel so guilty she has never ask much from me now that she has, i have failed her.Am i wrong for not helping her fullfill her wish?
