Honestly, it is sad that Mom is still doing so badly, but I feel so much lighter since I took a step back. Of course, I'll always be her for her, but I can't be here for every little thing all the time and these boundaries have been wonderful for my stress levels. And maybe as she gets to feeling better, I can loosen them a little too. :)
