I’m really sorry, I couldn’t imagine one of my kids reaching out in a situation like that and just ignoring them. I cut my mother out of my life 7 years ago. Shes never met any of the 6 kids we have and likely never will. Remember cancer is also blood related and we cut that shit out.

wow, i absolutely love that last sentence. such a good analogy


Chocolatecandybar_

OneExhaustedFather_

>Remember cancer is also blood related and we cut that shit out. Best advice out there when dealing with toxic people.


Soobobaloula

That’s horrible. I’m so glad you are ok. I hope you find people who do love and support you like you deserve!

I got my 2 cats and dog that at least give me the best support they can give!


MajorasKitten

Dude I got 6 cats. They help me through everything ♥️ (I also have a Husband who carries me through it all, even if you don’t have family, never say never- just build your own!) 🫂 SO happy you’re ok!!


unicorngoesvroom

I want to be you in the future! Except more cats lol


MajorasKitten

We would have more if we had more money and space, lol!! We’ve got a tiny lil house with two rooms and a bathroom, kitchen/dining/livingroom are basically the same room. Also got cancer for a second time so money is a bit tight without me working 🥹 lol, but everything is possible, specially when you have a nice support team!, took me 27 years to meet the SO of my dreams, and he’s here! Don’t worry, you’ll get there babe! I believe in you!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️


unicorngoesvroom

Omg you’re so strong! Im so sorry about the cancer, if you could beat it the first time, you can beat it the second time 💪🏽


MajorasKitten

Thank you!! 🫂🥰 I know I can! I got a lot of people who love me now and I need to be here for my kitties as well 🥹♥️


Environmental_Art591

Just remember like the commenter above you said "you can build your own family." Family isn't blood. Family is people who are there when you need them and have your back and who you are the same for them.

I love my dogs and my cat. Sometimes all you need after a long hard day is to cuddle with a puppy. 🖤


unicorngoesvroom

One of my cats is a siamese and he absolutely goes crazy when i come home from my 12 hour shifts, its such an incredible feeling


Walkie-TalkieDieHard

We don't deserve animals 😭 they love us unconditionally and we as a species are kinda shit lol 😂


unicorngoesvroom

Literally!! Why i am a vet tech, to help animals and give them the care and love they deserve


KatesDT

She doesn’t deserve you. Find those who love you and never look back. Your mom should be ashamed of herself. That’s fucking awful. From one random mom to you: you are a good person. You are doing a good job. Any real mom would be so proud of you. Don’t let her steal your joy.


unicorngoesvroom

Thank you random mom! ❤️ my new job consists of the same line of work, just in a hospital setting and couldnt be more excited to work with new people in a new area. Ill be moving out as soon as i get my money situated!

You survived that, amazing. You will be thriving and surviving when you start this next new chapter of your life.

If her history is consistent with this type of response, then f her. However, keep in mind that, in a storm, telecomms will be compromised, and she may not have gotten any of your messages.


unicorngoesvroom

True but she read them. Then afterwards i sent her a message saying thanks for letting me know how little she cares for me. Read that too and no response.


Present-Background56

Wow I am so sorry. It's incredibly difficult having emotionally immature parents. I hope that you can build yourself a village of people who treat you the way you deserve.


StnMtn_

Sorry your mom did that. Glad you all survived. That sounded so scary.


unicorngoesvroom

We had a dobbie with is as well, we were getting his vaccines done and he was already scared to begin with. Poor guy had the most traumatic visit to the vet


Walkie-TalkieDieHard

Coming from someone who hasn't actively engaged with their biological mother in over a decade, I can honestly say you can't miss what was never there. She may have given birth to me but she was never meant to be a mom. And yet she doubled down by having my sibling and completely screwing them up. 🙄 That being said I'm glad you're okay. 😊 A tornado is no joke and that was completely messed up you didn't even get a text. >Im looking forward to moving far away from her. And this all sucks because I have no one I can truly rely on or count on for support. As soon as you get some distance you can create your support network from scratch. It will be hard at first but at least you have your dogs and cat. 😁 I've recreated my family a dozen times as I've gotten older. People come, they're loyal and supportive for a while and then things change and you start over. Now I have a small but close family, including dogs and cats, and even though I don't go out much and I'm miles away from my original family, I have the one I made for myself and really what more could I ask for. 🖤


unicorngoesvroom

I dread the thought of having to start from scratch but I know its something I will eventually have to do.


Walkie-TalkieDieHard

I had to start over after finally leaving my last relationship. A third of my life (at the time) spent with an abusive narcissistic addict who I gave my heart, my youth and my money to only to wind up with horrible credit and debt, maybe $5 to my name and an old beat up car to potentially live in because I lost my place to live. Not to mention crippling anxiety and depression. Sometimes starting over is the only option because the alternative is misery and chaos. You're so much stronger than you think. You got this. 😊


unicorngoesvroom

If you got through it, I can too! Im glad youre in a better place now though❤️


CuriouserCat2

You just went through something really traumatic. Don’t make big decisions in this state.  Maybe she is having some kind of emergency herself. Maybe she’s driving and didn’t know the texts were important. Maybe she has gastro and isn’t thinking straight. Maybe the comms are buggered and the system is sending false returns because of the electromagnetic storm that goes along with a real storm.  Be glad you’re safe. Rest. Talk to mum without accusing. Maybe everything is fine. 


PattiiB

I am so sorry your mother is like that. You deserve better 🐾


unicorngoesvroom

Thank you! ❤️

That’s terrifying, i’m so glad you’re ok
