I am in a situation where I am the only sibling left that is close to my parents. Dad was marrried to a woman who was a witch and so the story I was told is that the son fom that marriage was turned against Dad and that was the reason they no longer communicated.. but I didn't see that years ago when I was a child and his son was almost grown I saw his son trying to make a connection with Dad and Dad chose not to acknowledge it. I had an older sister and she went through some hardship back in her 20s and 30s ..just picking the wrong friends and wrong men to get involved with. My parents helped her a great deal.. but then one day I fell down a flight of brick stairs which left my ankles in miserable pain for quite a few years. The thing was is my sister never did come down the stairs to help me that day and my parents were done with her amongst other things she had done.. letting her car get stolen and trashed, shoplifting, stealing , etc. For years now I have been close to my parents and now find myself the sole caregiver/ provider for them. Dad is 95% disabled and I have taken over all yardwork, laundry, cleaning, and any maintanance that is necessary in owning a house. I help dad with everything.. and Mom too. She just has a case of the lazies and doesn't want to do anything. For the last few months in doing things.. Dad says I'm not doing them fast enough, it needs to be done now, do this do that, etc. just demanding and pushy.. which I totally cannot stand when someone acts that way towards me.
Today I was mowing grass and Dad was standing behind the mower like he was going to push it. That was never going to happen because he can't hardly stand up. I get so tired of helping him when he does not listen. I told him to get away from the lawnmower and he says to me "Shut up!".. "Hush Please!" . I told him I was tired of him saying that to me and finding things I am doing wrong constantly. My patience is about shot.. I seriouusly was about ready to kick him on over today. His meaness is really consuming my feelings. :no:
