Albatross
I feel like an albatross around Aunt Tudi's neck. She's constantly worried about money, agonizing over never having enough to do what needs doing. I thought I'd be able to make her twilight years the best she's ever had but, instead, I'm making her twilight years overly difficult and filled with anxiety. I keep telling her she'd be better off without me, that she could live just fine on her check each month without this albatross around her neck. Maybe I should just disappear.
