The whole family went to Mt.Princeton for a long weekend to celebrate my son-in-law (Aaron's 30th bday) and my 51st.
There was an incident at the dinner-table were my mom felt that she needed to correct my youngest granddaughter.
But Aaron took offense to it...and a huge family fight followed....which has happened rarely. Aaron and his family ended up leaving a day early the following morning...Which really set my mom off, because she paid for everything. I'm the peacemaker so I got to spend the day after hiking with my parents and finally got my mom smiling again.
Then today, she just called me and was nasty about it all over again. I'm at a loss...very sad. I don't know what to say to her...she keeps cutting me off and saying the conversation is over.
I rattled off scripture but her heart seems so cold. She even started in on Dana and just can't understand why I'm throwing my life away waiting for him.
Some history....my mom had brain tumor surgery over 30 yrs ago....she wasn't supposed to live. we held a prayer service for her in the hospital....our pastor presided.
Mom survived and became a miracle in the medical world. She gave all the glory to God for many yrs. She has a newer inoperable tumor on her eye now and went thru radiation a few yrs back to stop it.
Anyway, I've been crying and I can see sadness in my dad and my sister's. My mom is generous and stubborn.
Thanks for reading and praying.
My mom's name is Sheila.
