About Me:
I'm 61 years old. All of our children have left the nest.I live with my husband of 43 years in Texas. We have 3 dogs named Angel, Pookie, and our rescue dogs' name is Buddy.
About my Loss:
A year and a half ago, my Mom came to live with us. Everything was going fine, when we found out she had 2 major heart problems and she couldn't continue to drink. When we told her doctor about her drinking, she was shocked.My Mom, on the other hand, was so enraged with me, she called me an ugly name in Spanish.Of course, this hurts me. She referred my Mom to a cardiologist, but, she didn't seem to want to make an appointment. She had other health problems like diabetes and high blood pressure.After this appointment, my husband told her he wasn't going to buy her any more beer.She got angry and called my baby sister, who bought her some beer, not knowing about her heart problems. My husband spoke to her, as well, but, my baby sister, telling my husband that my Mom was a grown woman and she could drink if she wanted to, left the beer, anyway. This occurred on New Year's Eve. My Mom had another appointment after New Year's Eve where I discovered she had taken me off of her contact list and replaced me with my nephew. If she had told me ahead of time that she had done this, I wouldn't have been so upset, but, she lied to us 3 times to our face that day saying that she didn't know how the change had happened. Prior to this, she had fallen down and my nephew had taken her to the clinic. I imagine that's where the change was made. Not knowing yet that she had changed it, I went to the front desk to try to change it back, but, the receptionist told me that my Mom would have to change it. When I asked her if she wanted to change it, she said, "No, leave it like that." All I could say was, "Thanks a lot, Mom." I felt betrayed and I wanted to cry, but, I held my tears back. She was in a wheelchair and I was so upset with her that I went to sit on a bench waiting for my husband to get the car.She turned to me and gave me the evilest smile I've ever seen! It was as if she was happy that she had hurt me! Well, afterward, I refused to talk to her for a whole month before my husband asked her to leave because my nephew was threatening us with Adult Protective Services. She moved out at the end of January 2017. She was able to get herself a little apartment in a senior living community. I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters who knew about her medical problems and they let her move into this apartment all alone. Well, we found out that her blood pressure crashed, she fainted and no one found her until the next day. They rushed her to the hospital and put her on life support, but, she was brain dead. My youngest daughter had to tell us of her death! My 80-year-old mom died on June 28th. Since her death, I've been having anxiety attacks and mixed emotions about her. Her rosary is today and her funeral is on Thursday. We've decided not to attend because of the way my siblings are treating me. I am the oldest in my family. I tried leaving an online message for her and they didn't accept it. When we found out that vindictive people like my siblings sometimes destroy floral arrangements, we had to cancel our floral order. I'm very sad about this, but, when we feel that the time is right, we'll buy her some flowers. They didn't even have the decency to tell me that she was in the hospital!! I know I need help with my feelings even though I have my husband to talk to, but, I hope I can get some closure. Thank you and sorry this is so long.
