As some of you know, my step mom A has been diagnosed as being terminally ill with a brain tumour. Tonight my father, an A, rang and said she is deteriorating and he needs to sort things out, legal, etc. I offered to look on her from 2 tomorrow while he does this. He started talking about power of attorney etc, I listened politely but its not my bag. When my children were small, my father was very good to me and did watch the children for me, so I feel I am returning this and this is the feeling in my heart. He had not deteriorated to the A he is now who loves and adores his whisky. I have no bitterness towards her either but am hoping she stays asleep as I need to get some work done. Sorry if I sound selfish, these people burned me in the past.
