Mum is a classic toxic parent, and is now terminally ill. She'll probably live another month. My sisters (who have a completely different relationship with her) are visiting daily. I saw Mum two weeks ago, but have fibbed that I have the tummy bug so can't drive down this weekend.
I feel guilty/upset at not seeing her, but can't bear to visit either as almost every time I see her, I'm shaken to the core.
I need advice about how to emerge from this intact please.
