MY CRAZY MOTHER
Perhaps it’s due to being an only child. And having a mother who can never make it about me.. it has to be about her! Don’t get me wrong she does nice things for me, but emotional the women is ‘F**KED in the head"
Take today for example- she calls me at work… the conversation goes like this
ME: Hi, can I call you back I am at work
MUM: Oh OK, but you have to call me back I have something important to tell you
ME: (roll of eyes) OK well since it’s so important, you can tell me now
MUM: NO no, it’s ok, Just call me you get home
ME: No just tell me
MUM: Well I got my results backs from DR Louie today
Me: Yeah
MUM: WELL… they found something
ME: ok… (paused in shock)
MUM: Yeah they found something
ME: Well what did they find
MUM:( said in a matter of fact way) Cancerous cells…(waits for my reaction)…Oh but they are benign….I have to go back in month to see what happens
ME: So your ok?
MUM: Well I have to get a check up in a month
ME: So you just called me to say that you may have Cancer, but you don’t because it’s benign- but in a month you will know if it’s Cancer or not
MUM: Well he found something… I thought you may want to know
ME: Of course, but your fine
MUM: In a month we will know for sure
ME: Ok then MUM.. thanks for telling me that.. LOVE YOU xxx
WHY? WHY would someone call up someone else to tell them that they could be dying, but they are not? Not only that, but this is classic "MOTHER"… she calls me 10-15 times a day. But because I have working very hard, she can’t talk to me as much as she likes. So for the 3 days.. I have been no taking all of her calls- and have cut it down to ONE call a day if that.
But as you can see- she needs to point out that she ‘ COULD" be dying..
I can’t be assed to go into why all of above is more wrong, because I would just end up writing for years.. but all I can is that. My mother can’t take that there is something Good going on in my life, or that it doesn’t involve her. The moment she thinks I may be able to survive on my own with out her.. she pulls out the guilt.
