Gosh, that's such a difficult and exhausting situation. I hardly know what to say. I just with you and your family a lot of strength. I hope the situation gets clearer really soon. *hugs*
I mean, this person you care for is going through the roughest thing you've personally ever seen, so you can take a week or maybe couple weeks of dealing with inconveniences. One should think so, right? But what you're going through right now is a phase where the pressure of doing the right thing (= staying by your aunt's side, being there for the rest of your family, keeping the rest of your life running smoothly, and last but not least staying sane) that it's really just completely normal to want a break. And I think you should take that break when you need it, and be alone to refill your energy. Even if it's just twenty minutes in the hospital lobby or in a quiet corner. If you need your alone time to stay sane (and I know I would!), then take it and don't feel guilty about it. It's just natural.
