My mother has had cancer about ten years, and it has slowly progressed to the point that she is bedridden. My father took great care of Mom, but looking back the strain probably killed him. Mom and Dad were still living in the house they built over sixty years ago. After Dad passed, my sister, who never married and has a home-based business moved in with Mom, who was deteriorating rapidly. I had already taken over the care and maintenance of their two acre yard and home; Dad just wasn't able to juggle it all toward the end. My career takes me all over the world, and I juggle the care of Mom's home, my primary home, and a multi-acre property in the country.
