We're being far too nice to these people.

but there is a level of reassurance in that when you've had a bad week. Don't make a habit of it mind.

She is barmier than a box of frogs.
When I visited on Wednesday, she would only talk about her dad, a seargent in the scots guards, and how great he was. FFS he died in 1946. She managed to avoid all questions about why she was in hospital (a quick blackout) but we did arrange a sweepstake as to who, in her ward was going to snuff it during the night.

No, I don't want your sympathy.
If you knew the old witch, you would pull the plug on her life support machine.

I haven't spoken to my mother for more than 16 years - she's a complete cunt.

I'm sorry for all the people in this situation.
I'm so fucked up, I believe my family deserves it's lot, but other people's family, no.

All families are mixed up
You're posting on a board here of people who are, I'd say, mainly indepedent of their families.

Don't believe it's just yours, don't assume that you're imposing your woes on the unafflicted and above all don't assume that there's some sort of norm that your relationship with your family has deviated from.

Do what you think is right and stick with it.
