With helping your mother for five years now, you've done far more than I knew I could ever do for my mom. My mom is in a beautiful residential care home with five other seniors and waited on hand and foot. She just broke her ankle this week which makes her care much more difficult. Please call your local senior social services and find out your options. My husband's mother was also in the same type care home situation with very little money. They will analyze your mother's financial situation and help you with placement. There are many more options these days than in the past for quality senior care. You must take care of yourself at this time. I know I would never want my children to feel like they had no choice but to care for me and be this desperate. Hugs to you.

yours is a scary place to be. your losing income and income prospects and the future is scary and uncertain and in fact there doesnt seem to be a future that you can see. depression keeps you from having positive thoughts. there IS a future and when your mother is gone youll probably pick your life back up with a renewed intensity. im a stone mason and its 8 degrees outside. one starts feeling like there will never be another job because of the rough economy but reality wafts back and reminds me that the latter part of last summer was a whirlwind of nice projects. feelings of impending doom are the norm with depression.
