I'm sure the change has been difficult for everyone. Contact your local area agency on aging, ask about caregiver services for you/sisters, in home services for mom and ask if they have a local adult medical day care. Mom could go, she'd be supervised and she may enjoy it. Mom could be experiencing depression, dementia or there could be something else medical going on. You need to take time for yourself, even if it's just 15 minutes, do something you enjoy, read, take a walk etc. You are not alone, there are many caregivers who are also frustrated and many who have felt the worsening economy. Don't give up. good luck

Fine then, get her a place with people her own age, Assisted Living or a Nursing Home. Your county office of the aging can help.
