Thanks, Ruchie, you're a dear friend.
I was close with my aunt when I was growing up, but seldom saw her when I was older. She's the best one in my family, and everyone says we're exactly alike.
My mother sometimes calls me by her name, and my aunt says sometimes family memebrs do the same to her!
But she's dying and there's nothing I can do. I talked to her on the phone 2 days ago and asked her if I was "invited." She said I should help my mom, but she's in no condition to entertain guests. I asked her her prognosis and she changed the subject. So there you go.
I want to be there for my mom, but don't want to feel USED. I feel like I'm treated badly when I'm over there. I always spend time by myself, and this time's going to be no different. *sigh*
I appreciate the hugs!! I am just so frustrated and feel really used right now! You're a good friend and I appreciate that you're in my corner! {{{{HUGS}}}}
