I am so grossed out by my husband's elderly aunt that lives with us- her flaky skin and her hair in her bathroom she stares at us all the time it's uncomfortable and I can't watch her eat because she sticks her tongue out so far before she takes a bite - We don't share food because she fingers it - does anyone else have this issue? I thought I read a discussion about this!
I just tell Mom "No, that's not true. You love me tenderly and appreciate me greatly, as I do you!"
On a me to you note; You're amazing for giving up all of that to care for your Mom.
I have been considering leaving this site for some time now. With your letter, I know that now I WILL leave it. It's been a trip. I have never read so much narcissism and idle complaining about personal egos in my entire life. Bleh!
