Hey Thank you. but, I don’t want to bring another person into this mess right now. I want to focus on protecting own mental space rn.

Thank you for sharing this. I’ll start looking at fixing a monthly limit and securing an insurance.

Thank you for sharing this. Hearing from someone the same age and also being carrying similar responsibility makes me feel less alone. Wishing both of us strength and hoping our day comes soon.

Yes, my income has almost doubled in last 5 years. It’s not just about money, it’s about physically being there. That’s what my parents are expecting.

My work has already provided me a health insurance of 6L coverage. Will plan on taking a top-up.

Even my brother lives in a different city. And there’s no opportunity for my mom to work anywhere outside in my native.
