Mother's day with my mother. CW: Maternal violence toward their child
Called mom. Missed the card this year.
I will never forget our past history. She kicked me out. She did try to kill me (once). She was demanding, abusive, controlling.
But I keep calling her. Birthday, Mother's day, anniversary.
Sometimes I wish I could quit her. Not sure what I'd do instead though.
But I also know that I will have a big hole in my tapestry when she's gone, and I want that to be as small as I can get it.
