Poxy week.

[Tyraboots]

Last week my Dad went into hospital for a simple cataract op. They kept him in because of low BP and irregular heart beat. He now has to have a pacemaker put in, sometime in the next week, when there is a vacancy. My mum is coming to stay with us for the time being. Her mental state has been worrying the past few months, my dad fails to see it. She has always been inappropriate in public and private come to think of it. She's racist and rude to people and tears me apart every Sunday berrating for being fat, which she has done since I was 10 and not fat.
On Monday the 9th November I have my surgeon appointment. I live in terror of the biscuit tin this week. I know I will be driven to it.
Still I am pretty excited about the surgeon appointment, I am praying I get my op before Xmas.

:hug99: I had a nan who sounds like your mum, in the end I learnt to step back and see her words and actions as childish behaviour and would just laugh at it. It's not easy though! Stay strong, and remember there are always people here if you need to vent.

Hi tyraboots so sorry to hear you have had problems at home.
Dad will be fine once the pacemaker is in he will do so much better, was good that they discovered it now.
As for mum DO NOT let her drive you to the biccie time no matter what .................otherwise she has won ..................just let her chunter on and stay focused, she is probably the main reason you are so overweight, dont let her put your op in jeopardy by putting weight on...................take a deep breath and have a nice drink of water, lol

Good luck Jay xx

Good luck Tyra, if all else fails hit the bath tub, it's amazing how much time you can spend in there when you need it xxx

Crikey, what a pain in the neck! Jay is right, do not let her jeopardise this for you! Long baths and as much time spent away from her as you can. Keep busy hun.

Hey Tyra

Hope your dad gets sorted swiftly. Are you able to take this opportunity with your mum to try and assess whether or not she is suffering with her mental health or is just 'one of those people' who sets out to upset others.

Either way...... I really hope the week with her staying speeds by and the biscuit tin hides from you

Xx

Hi Tyraboots
I`m sorry to hear about your dad hun god luv him . As for your mum maybe she`s more sicker than you think , how old is she . My mum isn`t racist right enough but the last few years shes been saying some things she would of not said before she got Alzheimer`s . Maybe you should look into it hun I`m not saying she has it but it wouldn`t do any harm to get her checked out . I hope every thing goes well at your appointment hun .
Good luck and take care .
