Disabled

What would you do? Only child and in a wheelchair full time. I have told my remaining parent that I cannot care for them. It is not getting in their head. Said parent relies upon me for phone help, advice, health management services, etc. I am able to do some things but am angry. I have been to the attorney to get POA they refuse. I have tried to get them to understand my help is limited due to my own limitations. They make me feel bad constantly and I am pissed off. Today for example

“She gets mad when I ask her to do things”

I love my parent so don’t say I don’t. I am not putting myself in the grave to do this. When you have a progressive disease is it fair that my parent isn’t figuring out how to help themselves?
