the condition your mother is in. I can see you are doing your best to cope with the whole thing. I have gone through the same thing with a few of my family members. I do not have any set solution or cure all but one thing I learned is that visitation in the hospital or at home is something that can help you deal with everything.

It might not lessen the hassle, that might increase. But being able to deal with all of this is the key. It means the difference between you taking care of all the things you need to do in your life and being sent to the hospital yourself.
