Sounds like a very, very tough situation and you need to look into funding situations for relief care from Medicaid or Medicare and get into some long term care solution. A Geriatric Care Manager or Elder Law Attorney could help.

In the meantime, here are some articles I wrote that may be helpful and provide useful links:

1. Hiring a Geriatric Care Manager:
2. Writing an Eldercare Plan:
3. What is Long Term Care?
4. Caring for the Caregiver:
5. How to Hire A Home Health Aide:

The best of luck to you!

Ask for hospice care. They are there for you! God bless. Was there, and grieve for friends, and you going thru it. Did it for mom and dad, five years of going from office supervisor with great job, to caregiver. Prayers and love to you and yours.

Council on Aging has been wonderful!!
Our local chapter provides economical in-home care (but only a couple hours per week).
I've enrolled my mom in their daycare!! It's 5 hours a day on weekdays. Also economical compared to $20.00 an hour for private pay in-home respite care.
Please, you MUST take care of YOU!! Look at this task as if your life depends on it; because it does!
Hoping you tackle this like a researcher and fine several options. You MUST get respite care. Bless you!!
