columellaShould be in bed. Had a good weekend, although it started out rocky. My mother called on friday morning after spending the 3 previous days not returning calls and telling Hospice not to tell me anything about what was being done with my brothers body or plans for a funeral. Then she calls as I am packing to leave for an SCA event for the weekend that I am in charge of registration for. And do her usual job on me. Tells me she is doing a memorial service the next day. When I say I am sorry but I can not be there (too late to get someone else to do registration at that point) I get "I am not surprised, you were not there when he was alive, why you would be when he is dead." Thanks mom, love you too.
I swear, when this is done I am not having anything else to do with her. I am not interested in being used as a weapon like she did my brother.
The Obit was in the paper while I was gone. Since the link to the St. Pete. Times does not seem to work very well (some kind of script error) I will just copy it here:
I am sure my mom wrote it. "nuff said.

Date: 2007-09-04 11:53 am (UTC)After everything that happened with my mother, my grandparents, and of course more recent losses, I don't think any kind of bad behavior would faze me. Unfortunately I had to make a choice similar to yours concerning my mother's family.
Good luck, and hopefully you won't have too much more B.S. to deal with before moving on with your life.

On a completely unrelated note: your grandmother's name is Fidelis? That is all kinds of awesome!

Your mom cannot comprehend, she will never change.
But when she said that "you had never been there for your brother," she is wrong on so many points... and she is correct on one.
You were not supposed to be there for your brother, you were not obligated to stop him from using drugs, to make good choices and you could not force him to change his life.
Your mom could have and did not.
Who was not there for whom?
Love you!
