Bit of background: I live at home (moved back in to save for house, moving out in 7 weeks). We live in the country and neither of my parents drive.
Last night my Mum asked would I take her and Dad to the graveyard mass for my Nan, which is tonight. I said no problem. Today I had soup for lunch and have been feeling really nauseous ever since. The graveyard is in the middle of no where with no toilets and I really don't feel up to driving for 40 minutes, standing for an hour and then driving 40 minutes back home.
So I called home to let parents know (there was a chance they could organise a lift with either my mums sister or Dads brother). Anyway my Dad answered the phone and I told him. He didn't say much. My Mum called me back bout half an hour later asking was I ok, and then telling me my Dad was in very bad form. I asked why and it's because I can't take them!! I said it to Mum that it's not like I planned on being sick and I usually take them and she said I didn't take them last year either (which I honestly don't remember but she obviously does)
Now I know there's going to be an atmosphere when I go home. My parents are VERY old fashioned and as I'm an only child basically I should do everything for them. But sometimes it's just physically not possible.
AM I being unreasonable?
