Please I need advice. Please no mean responses. If you have to be mean or funny please don't respond. My mother has lung cancer. She is very sick and weak. It is only me, her and my aunt which is her sister. I have 2 children 8 years, and 8 months. My mom currently lives with me in my tiny, crowded 2 bedroom apartment, while my aunt has a 3 bedroom house (about to be 4 bedrooms because she is remodeling). I need help. How can I get my aunt to help me? My aunt knows that my mom is down and out and wont help at all. I have no money, or resources. I go to school full time and work part time at a convenience store. I looked into hospice but they say she needs a primary doctor and I can't find a doctor to accept her insurance (medicare) and pay fully for the services. Basically, my question is how can I get my aunt to help me out? She wont even offer. She claims that she cares but thats all she ever says. How can I handle this situation even if I can't get her help?

I want to say that I am sorry to hear of your mother. I do think you need to tell your aunt your situation she may not know how much pressure you are under. However, I have to say I saw this when my grandmother was ill that there are always just certain people that step up to the plate and others that just don't. You can't force someone to help you out. If you get know help from you aunt then perhaps you need to talk to a counsellor who could lead you in the right direction to talk about the stress you are under to find a solution. You must be dealing with so much.
In terms of finding a doctor to accept her insurance contact the insurance company to see if they have a listing. If not then this is something that you need to talk to a counsellor there may be government programs that could help out in this situation.
Take care

You should talk to your Aunt. Lay all your cards on the table and tell her your situation. You have kids to care for; you attend school full-time; and you only work part-time. Let your Aunt know you can't care for mom on your own.
Also, contact mom's insurance provider to find a doctor that will provide the care you require with her insurance. They should be able to let you know. And consider finding a full-time job so you can make more cash to cover the additional expenses. Keep in mind working full-time doesn't necessarily mean you have to quit school. Evening classes are usually filled with people that work full-time.
Good Luck!
