My mom just got out of rehab, she had a staff infection and can't move her legs now. If she would have waited a couple more hours, she would be totally paralyzed and another day, she would have died. It scares me so much sometimes. She came back and I have to help her around the house because she's in a walker/wheelchair. I wish she was still in rehab though and I hate myself for it because she wanted to come home so badly. And she never does any "mom stuff" anymore, its not fair, some girls have life so great, totallly perfect, beautiful, smart. Is this normal and what should I do about my mom?

You will realize this episode in your life will make you a stronger person. Don't feel bad but don't feel jealous either, nobody's life is perfect. At least you still have your mom...there are so many girls out there with no mom. Spend some time with her, just being with you will make her get better faster. You are a good person for helping her. Hang in there sweetie:)

What you are feeling is totally normal and yes it is unfair...but guess what darling, life is unfair. Bad things happend to good people. No ones life is perfect and think how bad you will feel if something happened to your mom.
That said. Do you have a father or brothers and sisters. If not, perhaps you can get some in home assistance to help out around house. Instead of complaining and whining take action.

Life doesn't always give roses. You have to change your way of thinking that your mom is a burden. If you were disabled how would she treat you? I know it's hard, I'm a nurse. Apply for all the help you can get. You'll never have your mom doing mom things like other kids, but at least you've got your mom.

Talk to your mom about this. Ask if there is a way to have others come in to help give you some down time. Are there other family members that could help out with caring for her? I bet mom would not ask you to do things if she knew how it made you feel. Some things have to be done as you know. Talk to her so she can help to figure out ways to lessen the load. You will be closer to her and she will appreciate your honesty.

You need some counseling and you need someone to come in and give you a break. Family, friends? Some places have trained sitters on call. Ask your doctor's ofc, rehab place or your mom's ins. company. Your not a bad person, you are just tired. It's okay to ask for help. You are doing good.

Are you the only one who can help your mom? Sounds like maybe she came home to soon. I understand how you feel though. You shouldn't be the only one helping her. Talk to her and tell her how you feel maybe social services could get you some help.You are too young to have all this responsibility on you.

first off you dont need counselling it is a wast of money. you should tell her and maybe she can hire some help. and by the way no one has it great. ive been told im pretty and i strive for good grades, but my home life is hell so stop feeling sorry for yourself we all have our problems.
