my mom has done a complete 180. i’ve recently had some long talks with her, and wanted to tell her about Mel and my plans to move. i’ve been bracing myself for months.
She said she is so super happy for me, to RUN to Cali and not waste time. She said the fam will have to get over it, that i am entitled to a life, just like they have. (Easier said than done).
We were on FaceTime and she looked away fighting the tears saying not to live a life like her, she regrets not doing things that she wanted to.
i think my mom is a closet case, she’s been without someone in her life for over 25 years, and the two marriages she had were horrible.
Now she’s fighting COPD and having a hard time breathing. i want her to live so i an have many more talks with her. Now i’m being selfish. She is about to move herself back the same facility she hated a year ago, and moved herself to without thought. She’s been in a black hole of misery since. 79 and still trying to find happiness, moving her meager belongings from one government run housing facility to another. Her Social Security payments are a joke, so it’s all she can do.
She’s been so so miserable and unbearable, i’ve not always wish for her to live a long life, i just want to see her at peace.
Now i want her to stick around, i’m enjoying being the daughter.
