3rd time in 18 months mom flipped the h*ll bent switch, ran down the road, screaming and yelling I was trying to kill her. Police station is 3 blocks down the road, 3rd time they picked her up before I could get her...3rd time she told them I'm beating her. Got questioned (again)..... told them (again) she's got AD and just flips at times, especially if I'm not entertaining her. Tried to calm her down, put her pj's on but she kept the pretend screaming up.... tossed the covers on her fully clothed went and hid in my room and cried all night long. Oh...made sure the baby locks were securely on every single door knob in this house.
So... the only person I ever known to lay a hand on my mother was my late father...she doesn't remember him but apparently somewhere in that twisted mind of hers, she remembers getting hit.
Sigh. and another.... sigh
its a time to show empathy and be kind..
Man... this is all trying enough without worrying about them ....
Now she see's someone down the hallway wearing something funny looking and there goes another night of sleep.
Dusty... I lived in Ft. Lauderdale for 18 years... going home one day...the police officers are totally different here. One more trip down the road like last night and one of us is going to the pokey... oh....I didn't call them, their station is 3 blocks from here. Hard to miss an elderly lady frantically running down the road.... d*mn shame she doesn't move that fast when we go to the store :/ my legs ache from the S_L_O_W paced walking.
