Talked to my sis on the phone today and it was the same old crap. I'm doing very little to improve myself, blah, blah, blah. Lazy..., character defective..., OMG such IGNORANCE!!!
The ironic thing is that I spoke to her to say her input in regards to nutrition would be appreciated. But, it's the same old story. A total invalidation (as to keep up the status quo) for "Bob the Indentified Patient."
Left the conversation with a friendly message and told her I'd call. HA!!! I won't. I'm getting too old for this sibling role model and rivalry nonsense. Ain't worth it! She is not the key to my cure...she's simply a contributor to my stress.
And, one of these days I'll verbally tear her a new one so SHE has IBS w. D and will actually know what she's talking about. Get this, she's a nurse. Guess docs aren't the only health professionals who need sensitivity training.
This Thanksgiving will be quite a big day for the family... It's also Justice's (yes, that's the little child's name in the pic) birthday. He'll be one year old, on Thankgiving. I think I'll spend the dinner at the kiddie table w. Juss (my preferred nickname for him) and his party afterword with the babies... What I really enjoy about the new generation (there are four of them now, with one on the way) is that they are nonjudgemental & have a built in BS monitor. The antipsychotics actually help in this matter too, but nothing's as refreshing as a young child's perspective on the world.
God Bless them and special congrats to Torbetta (spelled correctly?) on her new arrival.
One parting thought. Now that I'm getting to know my "inner child" better..., I'm also learning who I don't want to "play with" anymore. Hasta la vista, hermana!!!
