Hi, did you hear back from Mom yet? I like the brave and bold step that you took. I know its hard. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and enjoy the people most important to you, the ones that love you more than any organization.
I daresay your mom loves you, but they have their loyalty in the wrong place. I'm sorry about that, but maybe she will surprise us all! I hope so!!
Oh, and some days, I wish I had the same posting name as you:)
No response yet. I don't think I'll get one. She does love us, she's just always been self-centered. I'm really not even that shocked at her reaction.
Thank you JWdaughter. I am more fortunate than some here. I have an extended family, my siblings and my hubby and kids. And a great network of friends, including those here!
My kids tell me all the time I am crazy. It's their fault I say. But my dr. did double my meds so....

Good on you for telling her.
My mum came around last week and told me that the elders said she should treat me the same as my hubby (who is DF'd). I have been faded for 6 years or so. She said I should talk to the elders and tell them how I feel, I told her that if I do that they will DF me for sure. She said she was sorry that was how I felt. She said its the truth and she believes it, I said its not, its lies and how could she break up her family for some organisation controlled by men who dont have holy spirit. She said the elders have holy spirit when they make good decisions but not when they make bad ones. What the....? How can she live with their decisions then? pffffftt.
I didn't handle the whole thing as well as I would have liked. I doubt she will ever leave but I continually hope she will.
*hugs* to you, we're all a bit crazy.
Hey momz . . . great work! Sometimes an enabler gets a wakeup call when their illusion gets cracked open by too much reality. Perhaps this is an opportunity for mom to take charge of her own life now and stop being an enabler.
I'm prouda you for speaking your truth!
*hugs*
