I came home to visit my mother for the weekend and our home is disturbingly dirty and disgusting. I don’t know what to do. I want to help her as best as I can, but I’m mortified. If anybody has any experience with something like this, please comment/dm.

Need context OP: Does she live alone? Is it dirty cause she doesn’t clean or she can’t clean?

She lives alone but we have 2 cats and a dog who she loves very much, she works an office job in the morning and then at an old folks home as an aid in the PM. She can clean, it’s a time issue but it’s also that we grew up poor so everything feels like you’re throwing money away lmfao. It’s just hard to see, it’s a lot for her to maintain, and there’s a lot of stuff that my siblings and I still have there bc none of us have permanently settled yet. I try my best to help, but it’s difficult
