my Mama
My Mom fell and broke her hip. She is in CA. I do not even know yet what hospital she is in. Information and communication are not big in my family of origin.
There's a long story about my Mom and me. I did not speak to her for 15 years. I made amends to her several years ago in AZ. Healing has taken place between us altho our relationship will never be what I'd like a mother/daughter relationship to be in my fantasies. But unlike E who I took to her first meeting last night, my Mama isn't a drug addict. Always when I think I have it bad---someone comes along with worse.
Realized quite recently how I have never been to CA to visit her there. I obviously need to find a way to get to CA to see her. Don't know the how or when. I often wondered what or how I would get there if something happened to her. I know she wouldn't want me there. Oh you might question that thinking but you don't know my mother. Theres lots of stories there to prove her not wanting any of us but one around--there were 5 of us, I am the oldest.
If you could--pray for her to heal and for my resistances to caring for her be removed.

I'm sorry about your mother. I think that even though she may say she doesn't want you to be there to visit, she likely would be happy that you were there. It's too late once our parents are deceased. Do what you want to do and not what you think she wants.
ooo, our mothers are falling apart around here!!!
We all have such unique family stories don't we?
