Sorry, long story but basically my Mum has manic depression, has been in hospital for over 2yrs on and off and has been home for almost 1yr.
She rings me EVERY night, sometimes 10 times or more to tell me she can't breathe and that she's dying.
She has my Dad at home and my brother is only 10 mins walk away.
I live over 50 miles away in England and she is in Wales so every trip to see them costs £5.30 plust petrol.
Tonight she rings saying its SO bad her face is going numb.......why bother me with it??
My Dad is there, what am i supposed to do about it??
She smokes non-stop every 30 mins on the dot (thinks this keeps her alive) and she has not slept for over 3 days (part of her mania).
Gods honest truth and God strike me down.. i just wish there WAS something wrong with her so that my Dad would get some peace.
All my life it has been my Mum and no-one else, a good day for me was if my Mum was in a good mood and did not hit or shout at me.
So tonight i've pulled the plug and my DH agrees with me.
Can't take it anymore, she's taking over my mind!
