In 2009, my grandfather died, leaving my grandmother to be cared by my father and uncle. It was hard, but we found her a home within walking distance so she can be close and we can care for her. The problem is that ever since my grandfather died, shes been depending entirely on my dad (and a little bit of my uncle, but he lives far out so he cant really do stuff for her). She also has bad hearing, and usually lies and says her hearing aids are in when they're not. And she'll also make stuff up, like saying that nobody in the home likes her when they actually barely know her.
She calls constantly, asking my father to do practically everything for her, which puts a lot of stress on him in which puts him in a bad mood. He then goes and yells at my mother to do something which puts her in a bad mood, then they will yell at me and my sister to do something, which puts us in a bad mood. Then the whole family is in a bad mood and nobody wants to speak to anybody.
Today, my mother and sister ran out the door crying because my dad had done something that put them in bad mood earlier. Luckily, my dad wasn't here. I sometimes wish my grandmother would just die and we could be a happy family again.
I just needed to vent. Please be respectful and don't make joke or rude comments about my family.
