My dad has AD and my mom takes care of him.  I live about an hour away.  I tried to get her to move next door to me and she refused.  Now the house is sold.  She is constantly calling me and I feel like I have to run every time she calls.  I feel guilty if I don't.  I want to be there for  her but it would be easier if she lived closer. 

She gets so stressed out.  Then she gets angry with him.  He can't help it but I know she is doing to much.  I wish they were with me.  I have tried to get her help but its not enough. 

 

I don't know what to do.
