Lexie, be grateful you have siblings and others to help you. When my parents split and my mom moved to a one-floor condo because steps were too much for her, I was the only one of 4 kids to help her sell the house and get her moved in. When my dad had to move from his apartment to assisted living - no one was around to help. When they died, guess who made all the arrangements, settled the estate and everything else? Yep, me - by myself.

Not complaining, I'm glad I could take care of them in their final years, but sometimes it was a heavy burden. The siblings were there when it was time for the money to be divvied up, however.
