Thank God you have her and listen to her wisdom ! Some day you will wish you did.
It is what it is; she is who she is; unless you want a lifetime of heartache, run as fast as you can to a happier future possibility.
This is a matter of 'acting under duress or coercion'. It is not legal. Most states now have a "Pro-Se" site to help you if you do not want to hire an attorney, knowing how expensive they are. It really depends on how important the issue is and is it worth fighting. However, it sounds as if you have signed an agreement that at this time binds you to it, unless you do fight it in court. Black's Law Dictionary (6th ed.) defines duress as "any unlawful threat or coercion used... to induce another to act [or not act] in a manner [they] otherwise would not [or would]". Duress is pressure exerted upon a person to coerce that person to perform an act that he or she ordinarily would not perform
Non applicable means 'it does not apply'.
Synthetic hair is typically man-made fibers [like a plastic] that cannot have heat close to them. Unlike the human hair that in most cases can be permed, colored, and ironed. Raquel Welch has a wonderful line of human hair extensions as well as synthetic hair, and wigs made of both. Some people want the extensions for length and fullness, and others prefer the wigs for different occassions, or thinning [loss of] hair. Synthetic hair that is already curled [shaped to specific style] is quick to incorporate with your own hair, while human hair although usually more adaptable for changes you want to make to incorporate into your own hair, takes a little more work. Most human hair has a life span of two years or more to hold its look. But Synthetic if worn a lot will wear out much quicker.
Jenn, I have two sons who have been diagnosed with Chrones. You truly are not a whimp, the pain is overwhelming at times . I will not go into detail about the problems my sons have endured, but please stay close to your gastoanterologist and your primary physcian. Stress can make the flare-ups more frequent. A second opinion if your flare-ups get worse would be a good thing. God Bless!
Nagging is scolding, complaining, or urging about a matter [s]. Usually there is an underlying problem that initiates the complaints, or an "unresolved issue[s]" that is causing pain to the individual. One example comes to my mind. A young woman was married to a man who abused her; after the divorce, she eventually met a man who she thought was a God-send to her. She poured her heart out to the man about what her X did to her. He thought it was terrible. The one thing she revealed that hurt her the most, her new guy said "how could anybody ever treat you like that"? As the relationshiip continued he was so good to her. He was one of those "too good to be true" kind of guys. A really good CON! She married him with all the hope she could find in her heart to have a happy life. Soon after he put the ring on her finger, he got angry at her for an insignificant matter; What did he do? He used the ONE THING on her that her X did to hurt her the most. Her heart was broken, and her self-esteem fell to its lowest level. She attempted to talk to him, but to no avail. He would run out the door. Never resolving the issue that he too had inflicted on her. He continued this behaviour, by allowing his own family to speak bad of her, he agreed with everyone who would put her down even though she was a good Christian woman and truly was not guilty of any of the lies told on her. He wanted everyone to think GOOD OF HIM, and think of her as a horrible person. He accomplished his goals, after all, his friends did not know her, so they were easy to judge her and feel sorry for him. He told lie after lie which eventually led to extreme resentment from her. She said she would look at him and cringe. He started buying her 'things' to paciify her. Of course that was just a Mask to the real problems that were swept under the rug, never getting resolved.
Perhaps this is not the case concerning your "nagging issues", but there is a reason he / she feels the need to be repeitive by words to get your attention. A good Christian Counselor who does not know either of you would be valuable. I have counseled women, and almost always the nagging is a "hidden, masked, or ignored issue". that is causing the person pain. A shopping spree, roses, candy, etc. is not the answer. Ignoring is not the answer. If you have to get angry to talk it out, then so be it. At least you are communicating. If you truly love her / him you will do what it takes to help. Do not sweep it under the rug.
A true friend can look into your soul, feel your pain, and know when to speak OR just hold you and give you silent heart-felt assurance that you will always be in their heart; As they are defending and protecting you as a momma lion protects her young.
Abusers are narcissistic psychopaths for the most part. They abuse you...then they cry. They control you with the "hope" that things will get better. But what they are really doing is getting your permission to abuse you again. Thats how they work.
A police officer once told me that abuse is not what they do, its WHO THEY ARE. Please get away from him, there is no light at the end of the tunnel as long as he is there to cast his shadow in your life.
I understand what you mean by 'being held responsible'. I am Medical Power of Attorney over two elderly family members. First, are you or your sister your mothers MPOA? Second, is she on a Medicaid Waiver? Depending on the state you reside in the Medicaid Waiver can be a blessing, and later a problem. However, you may want to check into the laws in your state, perhaps call your Attorney General Office, they can help with such questions about the laws. I am MPOA over my blind Uncle. His doctor sent him out of state to a nursing home regardless of my wishes, which was so wrong! He still had a high-rise apartment I was taking care of financially for him, and he was going to sign himself out of the nursing home and come back his home. I was told by state officials, that the doctor says he can't be home alone. Therefore, if he signs himself out, it will be "self abuse", the state will come in, take what little property he has, and 'committ him" wherever they choose. I was SHOCKED this could be done. He was permitted care-givers daily under the medicaid, so would have some help if he was permitted to come home. BUT, seeing I am his MPOA, I was told that I too would be in trouble for neglect or abuse because I am considered his guardian and I could have stopped him from coming home. I have a lawyer for him as well as working with the Veterans Nursing home to get him back in his home state. I have tried to keep his wishes to be independent as much as possible, that is very important as well as his care. I don't know how our situation is going to end up; it has been a nightmare! Please check into the laws of your state and find out about In-Home Senior Care. But also make sure they give you the laws that are attached to doing so, especially if your mother owns property. I agree, yoru mother wants to hold on to her independence; it is a hard thing to let go of. She is very blessed to have her daughters care so much! My sister and I also did shifts when our mother was critical and then needed rehabilitated....Our family has seen so much of this elder care problem in the past two years, I think my sis and I could write a book:) I hope I have helped some. Just have so much info. in my brain from experience.
