Unfiltered Story #362308
Due to a rare skin condition, I had to have surgery and stay with my mother for a few months. During the entirity of the stay i feel absolutely aweful because my father just died a few months ago and my mother, who had just retired, has had to start working again. My doctor said that I was not allowed to work for the months this after the surgery because of a strict regime towards skin grafts.
unfortunately my sister (who is ten years older than me) got into a rough spot with her emotionally abusive boyfriend in California, decided to come back home to my mother’s house weeks before my first surgery. So my mother, being the caring being that she is, flew down to California and drove back up a rental car with my sister and her two year old. My poor mother spent most of the retirement money on the trip because my useless sister didn’t spend so much as a tank of gas to help her out. Then she complained the whole car trip to me and my other sister that my mother was grating on her nerves because “she just didn’t understand my sister’s point of view on certain things.” It drove me and the other sister nuts.
It was two weeks before my surgery and my mother had just made it back to New York with bareley any money. Because of this, she needed to put in some extra hours at the convenience store she worked at and asks me if my older sister could go to my surgery with me instead of her so she could work more. Despite this being my very first surgery ever and being absolutely terrified, I agree to my mother’s terms because I understand were she is coming from and I know she needs the money. It was a mistake I made that haunts me still.
My sister spent the entire week of me being in the hospital ( and with no one to visit me, because all my friends and boyfriend were 5+ hours away) flirting and having sex with some waiter that she had just met at a restaurant a block away from the hospital. She would come see me for thirty minutes, tell me all the nasty shit her and this guy were doing, and then leave me alone for the rest of the time. Mind you, she still had the two year old all this time and didn’t leave her with my mother.
I was miserable, and thank god i made friends easily because I made good friends with the staff and doctors because of my positive attitude, despite having such a crappy skin condition. They would visit with me regularly because I was bored out my mind and didn’t have any thing to entertain myself with. When my sister took me home she didn’t even ask about anything I needed to do from the nurses and I was too doped up to ask with all the pain pills. I ended up having to call a 24 hr nurse line to figure out what I wasn’t and was allowed to do after surgery. It was a nightmare.
It’s been a few months since and I’ve had to go back twice and have more skin grafts as the first one had failed because I didn’t know how to take of it properly. Still, my sister is mooching off my 67 year old mother and has refused to find a job because her and the waiter are dating now and she needs to “keep herself open for any time he wants to meet and fuck”. My sister will even leave my ungrateful and mannerless niece with me and my mother to go see him. I’m really starting to hate her and kind of see why her exboyfriend treated her so crappy. I haven’t even been able to see my own boyfriend because she refuses to drive back to the town I moved to. Simply because she doesn’t want to take the two year old
To a “booty call”.
Which I think is disgusting because my boyfriend and I are asexual and simply just wanna see each other and perhaps go on another date. I just don’t understand the amount of disrespect that my sister can show towards my mother. I can’t believe how much I’m starting to hate my sister and her bratty spoiled child. My father, wherever he may be, must be boiling mad at this point. I’m hoping the waiter dumps her, or my mother gets tiered of her shit and finally kicks her ungrateful ass out.
