This post is a follow on from ‘dealing with mum - help’
I have not been to see my mum for 2 weeks now and am going today for the first time after I fell off the edge a couple of weeks ago. Not sure how it’s going to go but My daughter is coming with me.
i now know I have to back off to seeing her only once a week for my sanity, my family who kicked in for 2 weeks can make their own minds what they want to do,
she was told not to contact me so I could have a break, however she did still manage to call 8 times and as of yesterday I have unplugged the landline.
My daughter had a call from yesterday saying that I hated her and that’s why I wasn’t going in - mum doesn’t get my meltdown. She then told my daughter that she was going to take all of her heart meds so she wasn’t a nuicense to Anyone. My daughter rushed over together with my son in law. He sat and told mum straight that it was emotional blackmail and she was being selfish and A few other home truths. this means that at last someone sees the mum that I’m dealing with.
on top of that, my husband who feels hateful towards mum Most of the time is angry that I did not allow him to say these thing to my mum. I have always said there’s no point as it would solve nothing when dealing with this dotty person. will this ever end
