So, today being Mother's Day, I took a card and a very nice sixty dollar gift to my mother, knocked on the door, and her exact words to my face were, "Well, didn't Eric tell you? I told your brother that I didn't want to have anything to do with any of my children anymore." So, I gave her the cards and the gift, gave her a hug, and left, holding back the tears till I got home. My mom has a history of mental illnesses, and has always been a little weird, but now all of a sudden this? What the hell? How hurtful can someone be, to tell their child this on Mother's Day? I'm still in shock and so upset. I just have to let myself step back and blame it on the mental illness and realize that there is nothing I can do at this point I guess. My family has a lot of fuckupedness and I am really sick of being so hurt by members of my family that I could just scream.
