Guest guest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 My mother is a classic BPD. She has never fostered a relationship with her grandchildren. She is 85 and declining mentally and physically. My children live out of state and I am the sole caregiver. It is a big load to handle all her needs. I have had 7 leg surgeries in the past 2 years and moved her to 2 locations. My children know that their grandmother is having issues with aging but they offer absolutely no assistance. It has reached the point that they don't call either one of us. I don't complain about their not calling or about their grandmother. I think they are just too busy with their (selfish) lives to call and check on us. It hurts my feelings. I have tried to call and email my (age 32) daughter. She is obviously unhappy with me but honestly, I have no idea why. My husband advises me to just wait it out. it is so hard. I miss the kids terribly. My mother has the grandchildren in her will and I can see them show up in a hurry for that! Now I know for sure that they will not take care of me!
