[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 284530, member: 1233"] The thing is, my Dad probably is NOT mad. HE knows he doesn't answer the phone. HE told me not to bother. My MOM is the one that is upset right now. And yes, it is bullying. I am physically not up to much. My bones are soft enough that SITTING for an hour puts ungodly pain that takes four or five DAYS to subside. I am working as hard as I can on it. Part of that work means taking LOTS of antinausea medications and choking down as much Vit D as I can. I just can't keep up with everyone else's hurt feelings. I remembered mothers day BARELY. The family made a big deal about me not going to my parents but I just couldn't. Ihave been fighting the double standard forever. LIterally. And I will continue to, because in their minds I am always the wrong one. Brother is a drunk? Why didn't you tell us?? He's using drugs? Why didn't you tell us? When I told them? Why would you make that stuff up about your poor brother?? I iwll call Dad tonight (he isn't home now) and the kids and I will apologize. because we should have called. If he doesn't answer? I still won't leave a message. I would email him, but don't know his email. It changes every other month! Thanks for the understanding. I need it. Hugs to all! [/QUOTE]
