Title: Mothers and Guilt Trips
Post by: sneakersjay on June 25, 2010, 09:02:04 AM
My mother calls today (10 days before my surgery) and demands to know why I didn't share my surgery info (address, phone, surgeon, etc) until she asked.  "Don't you think we care?" and other accusations.

It's stressful enough packing and planning for surgery, working 2 jobs, and  making sure my life is in order before I go.  TBH, sending out a list of when/where/phone #s etc was on the list for next week.  Just didn't get around to it yet.

But the guilt trip....

(BTW, mother and I are not close).
