Today when I called up my mom who is a widow and we were generally talking,she started reminiscing and was telling me how she had to deal alone with so many stuff in her life. I have a brother for whom she is going to see a gal in person next saturday.She was feeling bad that she has no relatives or anyone to come with her as all the relatives stay abroad.She also said she misses my dad a lot and cried yesterday.I feel too guilty.here,am enjoying a good life in usa in many ways and my mom is crying in India:( I told her to come and stay with me once bro is married.

for that,she said "I will not live with u guys.I will be alone and manage.I do not want to depend".I got a bit mad.I feel too guilty staying in usa all the more.

DH does not want to move back to India and he says we will deal with stuff when the time comes..honestly,as much as I miss India..the brutal truth is dh and me will be way more at peace and away from troubles in the usa than India due to variety of reasons.

How do I get over this guilt...how do you guys manage with your family being in India..
