I’ve been my mom‘s caregiver for nearly five years now. She is in stage 7 and on hospice. it is getting harder and harder to move her about. This is not because she’s a potato. but because she is so resistant. I know that her ability to understand is nearly if not zero, but just the idea of her letting me help her get out of bed or out of a chair is almost a non starter. Every day I dread getting out of bed myself knowing that I’m going to have to face trying to move her, try to change her, all while she fights me with great strength. I do not know what to do. I know that arguing is useless. But how can I manage anything while she makes it so hard?
