Wow.
Cynthia, I never knew you had such a problematic relationship with your mother. I feel your pain.
We do have some similarities: when I was a kid, I never really noticed my mother's drinking; my mother also smokes a lot (2-3 packs a day); the fear that she'll die without us having worked through our problems; etc.
Thank you for sharing your story.

Mother
Oh Cynthia...that last sentence was so painful. Your experiences are a perfect example of life not going according to Women's Day magazines. My husband has a similar relationship with his mother and I found it hard to understand until I was involved with some of her harsh traits. (Hope you are enjoying your motherhood up yonder!) ;-)
