Hello there, Jayell, and welcome to the Forum. It could quite easily have been me who wrote the words which you have posted! I am in the same situation, but a bit farther down the line. Of course you are a Carer - you care for your mother.
I'm not particularly close to my mother either, and it's certainly made my job a bit harder than it normally would have been. In fact, I have said to nursing staff that it's not all the dementia doing it - she's always been like it to some extent! Then they look at me as if I'm the most awfulest daughter in the World!
Anyway, you know where to come if you want to rant and rave -or to just simply chat with others who will understand your feelings x
