The Kids v. My Aging Parents

The challenges of being a member of the sandwich generation are many, but here are the ones I found (and continue to find as I listen to my readers and speak to groups) most common.

My son was barely coming out of a severe asthma attack, and resting in his room, when my mother's personal alarm went off and the dispatcher called to have me go to her apartment to check on her. Can I leave Adam? Will he be okay? Someone has to check on Mom. She's likely lying on the floor again. This particular time, Adam's older brother was home and Adam was better, so I quickly ran to Mom's apartment. Yes she was on the floor. I had to get the firefighter's to help, but we got her up and she was amazingly unhurt, so I got her to bed and hurried back home.
