My name is Kylee. About a month ago we found out my mother has MM. It's been extremely hard on me,I'm the only family in town,I try my hardest to help her as much as I can even though I have two small children and work part time and don't know how to drive. It's starting to take a toll on me and my job. She's very stubborn and hasn't had her biopsy done,she keeps making excuses and she just neglected her health and ended back in the hospital last night. I'm at loss,I have zero help or resources,I really don't know who or where to turn to anymore. She went into a nursing home for less than a day a few months ago and I had to take her out because they were abusing her and neglected her needs. If anyone has any resources or things to help. I'd really appreciate it.
