Well,
I
sent
the
dreaded
email
message
to
my
sister.
I
can't
cover
at
the
hospital
this
Wednesday
or
next
week
at
all.
My
husband
and
I
usually
go
sit
with
my
sister,
who
would
have
to
be
restrained
if
someone
weren't
there,
3
days
a
week.
The
docs
won't
let
me
drive,
so
my
husband
has
to
take
me.
This
has
been
going
on
for
4
months
and
my
husband
has
been
super
about
not
complaining.
Now,
he
wants
some
time
to
go
to
the
lake
and
play
with
his
boat.
I
know
my
family
will
be
upset
with
me,
but
I
really
feel
like
my
husband
deserves
this
and
I
need
to
go
with
him.
The
situation
with
my
sister
isn't
going
to
resolve
itself
soon,
maybe
never.
I
can't
schedule
my
whole
life
around
her
health
condition.
I
guess
I
could,
but
eventually
it
would
lead
to
big
trouble
for
my
marriage
and
my
own
mental
health.
So,
why
do
I
feel
so
guilty?
Well,
must
rush
and
get
ready
to
go
to
the
hospital!
Am
I
being
selfish
in
wanting
to
reduce
the
amount
of
time
I
spend
at
the
hospital,
or
should
my
family
just
face
the
reality
of
the
situation?
Someone
can't
sit
with
her
every
day
all
day
for
the
forseeable
future.
I'm
really
torn
here.
