It’s been a day. My mother (85) is in the hospital refusing treatment for a bone infection in her leg. She still thinks that her other leg was amputated preemptively even though she literally had a bone falling out and her toes had fallen off. She thinks that she can beat this. They’ve told us…

She is likely to pass away but in great pain. She’s signed a DNR. Of course she is a diagnosed narcissist so she also thinks they will ignore that and save her at the last minute.
We went to sell her house to find out that she took out a reverse mortgage years

Ago because she thought her last amputation would kill her and she didn’t think she’d have to pay it back. It’s been years and the amount she owes has tripled. 🤦‍♀️
My RA is flaring from the stress.
All I can do is hope she goes peacefully.
She was not a good mother, makes things interesting.

I’m at peace with the past but my siblings aren’t and there are a lot of feelings flying around. Today was all a bit awful.
Anyway thanks for listening, had to get that off my chest.

That's such a difficult position to be in both mentally and emotionally. Take care.
