I agree 100%. My point wasn't about complaining - it was a poorly expressed idea that since, our parents gave so much of themselves to us - that it can help to reflect on that when it is our turn to look after them.

I'm in no position to comment on how to handle that burden and I would be mortified if I thought that wolf took my comment the wrong way - I was only trying to provide a comforting thought to ease her burden.

No, I didn't take it the wrong way ... I understood what you meant. And don't feel much differently.

I'm appreciative of everybody's comments, actually.

Thanks all!
