[quote=Anonymous]Wow, just wow, OP! I am sorry about your loss, and I am sorry that you did not have the support of your mom while going through what may have been the most difficult time in your life so far.
For her to leave on a cruise while her children's father was dying. For her to have the gall to try to plan a visit for the spring a few days after this passing. I would tell her the arguments you've made here: While she divorced your father, and had no responsibility to him, she had not divorced her kids - and yet she abandoned them at the most trying time of their lives so far. That you don't know if and how you will get over this, and that visits with her have to be on hold for a while while you deal with your grief over your father's loss and her abandonment. And, as others have suggested, and if that is what you feel, that there is no way that you can handle such a situation again, so she should put plans in place for her future now that she is still healthy.
I personally would find your mother's behavior towards you and your sister (not towards your dad!) unforgivable. I am so sorry.
