In The Beginning PT 7

0 Replies

When I last wrote about this, my mother had just undergone emergency brain surgery. Well, when she first came out of it, she acted any way you could expect a person to act that just had their brain poked and cut apart would. She was very sleepy, but when awake she was hard to understand and to follow. She went on to many medications just to make her function semi normally throughout the day. She still had all of her mental problems, as well as all the new issues from the surgery. She would have good days, and then she would have bad. Through all of this...I tried my hardest to have some type of relationship with her, trying to disregard what she had done in my past, but certain things she would say or do would trigger me and I would go off on her and stop talking for months to years at a time. I didn't want to keep doing that anymore, but it just seemed like a never ending cycle that was never getting better. Fast forwarding a several years, because the in between stayed consistently the same; I met my ex. She asked about family and when she would be meeting them. I remember telling her that she would probably never meet my mother, because she was crazy and not right in the head. Even knowing my daughter was coming soon and that it wouldn't be right for me to keep her from her grandchild, I was scared about how she would be.

As always thanks for reading and keeping up with my posts everyone. Hope you all have a good day.
