My mother has asked me to go with her to see my great aunt in hospital. She is dying. I don’t have a particularly good relationship with my mother and hardly know my great aunt at all.
The great aunt is my grandfathers twin sister. My grandfather who brought me up when my mother couldn’t be bothered. She looks just like him and I don’t think I could face it. The last place I saw my grandfather was in the hospital after he died because I got there too late.
My mother was close to great aunt and was a big part in her childhood. I don’t want to let my mother down but I really don’t want to go. She could take my dad or one of my siblings. Aibu to say no? My mother thinks I’m being selfish.
