I've name changed, now sure why, but with a splitting headache, can't think straight.
I am 70, dd(nc) is one of three.
she is 47, and three years ago, when her cat died, she ,out of the blue sent me a vitriolic email, to tell me I was the worst person who ever walked the earth.
(we had spent the previous day together, enjoyingour shopping trip and lunch)
not the first time, as over the many years dd has gone nc, sometimes for 6 months/1 year/2 years, then contacted me as though nothing has happened.(she has gone nc, one by one, with every family member)
if she had an issue/incident/happening in her life, she would always use me as her whipping boy...I had supported..suffered...with her through many decades with her unstable mental health.
(I brought her a house/business and was always there for her)
so, here I am, three years on, to be honest it has been a peaceful three years, yet very sad not to be able even to speak to dd...I have sent birthday/xmas cards/emailed/phoned/text, but received no reply.
then today.....out of the blue...a bouquet of flowers, saying happy mothers day...I was shocked, and a little bit afraid.
this has happened so many times before, we are all happy together, then bam,....nc again...
I don't know how to respond, if at all.
