Oh, forgot…

Today is the day Mr B, his kids and his ex-wife’s brother are having a meeting with his ex-wife’s doctors. He had no idea if she would be there or not. Which is strange, shouldn’t they tell him? Shouldn’t he be curious?

Anyway, I’m trying to be cool about it, although it’s kinda doing my head in.

One of the things I tried to imprint upon B yesterday was that if he always steps in – even if it’s just to help his kids – everyone else will relax and not take their responsibility. I’m talking about his daughters’ elder brothers, who are grown-ups. Of course they grew up with B for a stepfather and are used to the fact that he always saves the day. And one of his reasons for not being able to cut ties with his ex-wife entirely is the fact that his daughters need his support in this because their brothers and their uncle aren’t helping. My point is that the reason they aren’t is because they know that in the end B will.

I don’t think the brothers mean to hurt their younger sisters. I’m just not sure they realise that the girls need their support in this. And I want Mr B to make it painfully clear to them. I just wish the entire caring community could see this too and help out!!!

  1. Shouldn’t she be present when discussed?!

    That’s weird!

  2. They want help treating her. Because she’s driving them nuts.
    She was invited though. Just decided not to come.

  3. Sounds splendid. I would LOVE to try to help a nutcase who doesn’t care to get well!

    Really. That’s amazing! I’d ditch her in a second telling her I don’t want to hear from her ever again! Daughters or no daughters!

  4. Oh, according to her she’s fine enough.

  5. Well, that’s classic, isn’t it?
    The thing is, she doesn’t have to. He can still put that preasure on her. “You don’t take treatment, I don’t talk to you!”
