I’d rather be anything other than the Abuser. To paraphrase Catatonia, Every morning when I wake up I thank the Lord I’m not the Abuser. Doesn’t scan I know, but I won’t refer to her as anything other than the Abuser, or a bleep.
I have just had a conversation with my Mum’s GP about putting a DNR in place for her. She is very old, has lots of illnesses clouding Alzheimer’s and breast cancer. Still, she is infinitely precious to us and it’s a decidion that is difficult to make. She has given her children nothing but the most incredible love and support all of our lives, and has taught us how to be decent and resilient adults. Any nonsense was drummed out of us at an early age as proper boundaries were set. I feel so sorry and sad for the Gruffudd children that they will not have this from their “mother” Will they look back on her life in years to come and know that she gave them as good an upbringing as my darling Mum has given us? With my late Dad’s help of course.
I'm sorry that your mum is so unwell
, that is an incredibly hard decision. Before my nan passed, she was very ill, dementia finally got her, and my mum and grandad has to make this decision, my grandad was against it because it was his wife of 68 years and of course wanted to save her at any cost. We had to explain that she was never coming back from the illness she had, she was not with it at all, wouldn't eat, and dementia is a really cruel disease, so he agreed. When he got really ill he also made the decision himself.
My heart goes out to you and your family, she sounds like a wonderful woman, who has raised a loving family, peace be with her
looks like Brisbane… nice location for a wedding. Might want to pop in to check the dress/caterers etc…
