Thank you very much for responding! The vacation is this weekend-she was happy I was going until today, when she turned cruel again. I even treated her to a new haircut by a stylist so she could look in the mirror and feel better about herself. The gratitude lasted maybe 15 minutes. Yes, I mentioned the emotional ups/downs to the oncologist but he didn’t pay it any mind. Her GP did and set up time for us with his Social Worker that he had on staff. She acted weird during the session; denying she says things, and acting like she’s so appreciative of me. It’s quite disturbing but-the GP has known her for years & didn’t buy it. He told her I’m “wonderful” & explained that I’m her advocate. She didn’t respond.  Today she decided to take her anger out on my new puppy. The GP thinks it could be dementia.  The fact is I’ve lost my mother already, for all practical purposes. I’m just watching further destruction day by day.  Youre so sweet to reach out. Thank you. Your support means more to me than you can know. ❤️❤️ ... View more
