[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was hospitalized for a week with a serious medical condition and my father, who is incredibly narcissistic and self-involved, did not call and ask how I was. It was indeed eye-opening, and I now have all the informaiton I need about what I owe him in the future. [/quote] Yes, I was there for my mother for her health issues and throughout dad's decline with cancer. Now with my own illness I don't expect her to help because I know she is limited and will make everything about her and her anxiety. What I did not expect was how entitled she felt and how full of rage she would be that I am not doing more for her. (She is healthy by the way, but has age related issues considered typical. And no, she doesn't have dementia.) She has always been a taker, but it takes a whole new level of self-absorption to add stress and upset to the life of a person trying to get health back.[/quote]
