I am in the midst of helping to care for my parents while also having an 11-year old autistic son. All while working full-time. I am always tired. I do try to remember that I'm too blessed to be stressed, and that overall, I'm thankful for the life I've been given.

part two: of course I didn’t keep driving, I tended do those I love so very much. I’m at the far end of that family sandwich now And I hope and pray that my sons and daughter know how grateful I am that they take the time to give me a hand when I need one.

I remember caring for my mom and my kids at the same time. I remember driving one place to another, and just having the overwhelming desire to keep on driving just to someplace unknown

I love the way you've described your Mom, Geri. Beautiful and so hard working and determined. I've always felt Mother-Daughter relationships are complicated...for so many reasons.
