All you can do is pray and hope for the best. Think positive and yes focus on your blessings, This is all coming to the fore front for you because you feel helpless about your mom being in the nursing home. It also brings guilt because you cannot help your mother any more. My mom went through alot of guilt when she had to put granny in the nursing home. I prayed that God would take her and not let her go through any more misery. Moms are a gift from God and You only get to have one, you will always love her even when she's gone. Try and be strong for your kids and help them through their tough times, they are human too and talking to them without being a mother on the return advice will help them feel comfortable enough to talk with you. We are all people/human. and go through rough spells, not to mention hormone changes and things you just can't help. As for your siblings, remember, you cannot help someone who will not help themselves no matter how bad you want to. I am a person who wants to help put things right, if it's broken I want to fix it...things, people, ect. Sometimes I have to tell myself that I just can't do anything about it no matter how bad i feel I need to...so you hang in there and I will Pray for you and You need to Pray that God will lift all this off your back so that you can be a good mom, sister, and person. Good luck sweetie, I'm saying a little prayer for you right now.

When you focus on lack, you get more of what you lack. Try being thankful and see if you don't get more to be thankful for!
