Legal Question in Health Care Law in Florida

I can't take more abuse

Here i am, the only member of this so called family taking care of my elderly mother if u want to call her that.She had major surgery including complications. I'm the only one to help her 24/7.She abuses me in many ways to go into.She blames me for everything.I wish i could leave to save myself' i am going thru a prolonged international divorce, my son was just diagnosed with cancer of the medula.I have a broken clavical and i work like a friggin slave because mom blames me for everything even though many times she has said she doesn't know how she could function if i wern't here. I am at the breaking point. The witch is not appreciative of the fact that i take care of her and yells at me that the reason why no one in the so called family visits her is because of the reason my family hates me. I can't go on like this. I am almost to the point where she makes me feel like i would do everything to know i'm not worthy to breath oxygen-i don't deserve it. I spend all of my money on her food credit pmyts, etc. I wish i'd never been born which is one of the many multitudes of things she reminds me of on a daily basis. Iwish i was never born(she told me that too)

Re: I can't take more abuse

Not sure what you're asking, but there is no legal obligation requiring you to take care of your mother. It sounds harsh, but you don't have to put up with it.
