I am so grateful to have a place where my experiences being treated like one of the walking dead can be understood and empathized with.
I was opening my mail last night and there was a bill from local hospital. I opened it a bit confused because I have not been in a hospital in 2 years. It was a detailed bill for my stepson. It scared me and all I could think was "OMG, he died and no one called me". So I text the X because I get sick when I have to hear his voice. He texts back that stepson is "OK". No details, so as I start to dial his number to speak with him, he calls me. I ask what happened and at first he says he just broke his arm. I say, they ran all those tests for a broken arm? He says, well he was in an accident. I ask what kind. I finally, after much teeth pulling, get the story...the kid almost died in a serious accident in January and was in the hospital for a week. The X claims he did not call me because the kid requested that. Might be true because the kid is well & truly indoctrinated in the Borg and then again the X is not known to me for his honesty. I say "I raised this kid for 8 years. I was more a mother to him than his own and you don't call me???? If he dies, are you going to have the compassion to let me know?" He says "I don't know". Of course, that is his standard response to pretty much any question he is ever asked.
This just makes me so sick at heart. I hate the Borg and the X. This True Christian raped me 8 times, cheated on me twice, never once did he confess his sins. I do something stupid, have not one, but two breakdowns over it, confess my sin (because the X hounded me to do so), make 100% amends for what I did and I am the one who gets kicked out because I was not emotionally well enough to endure the committee hanging with the Nazis. My family still hangs out with this prick because he is in "good standing" in the Borg.
