One thought on “narcissism quote

  1. I just learned my brother is a narcissist. He is our mothers primary care giver since he is retired and lives across the street from mom. His wife is a retired nurse. They take her on appointments run errands and are there if she calls them via Alexa. I still work and leave over 200 miles away. So I found a weekend position in PA that allows me to spend every sat and Sunday morning with Mom. I’m only there 7:30 am to 2:30pm. I always show up with a good breakfast, change her bed, bath Mom and either cool or pick up one of her favorites for dinner. I also leave her favorite sweets for the week. Blackberry pie, coconut cake or pecan Pie. I also leave a couple DQ Caramel sundaes in her freezer. I’ve also washed down ceilings and walls down and washed curtains. I always play down my contributions because I know my brother does so much more. Mom has dementia and Parkinson’s. Last week I found an error a medical supply company made. I called them and let them know. I gave them my brothers number and explained he was the primary care giver.Then I called my brother. He burst in screaming at me. Scared Mom. He said, ‘You sachet in here and figure out one think and were supposed to how down!?’ He stood over Mom and yelled at her. ‘DONT WORRY YOULL HET YOUR MONEY!!! iAds a mistake! I’m here everyday! Then he said to me, YOU DO NOTHING! Nothing! MOTHING!! I agreed because I knew he was scaring Mom. He stormed out andMom was crying. She begged me, ‘please don’t go, he’s going to come back and throw money ay me.’ I was devastated by what had happened. My brother and I have never had a fight. He has been short and insulting but I never took the bait. I even took FMLA for whenever he needed a week or 2 off. He threw that iny face as well. He said your going to take care of Mom! Well are you going to cut the grass? Wash down the siding? Till the garden? Well your FMLA is not going to help. So now mom isn’t eating well anymore. She says she’s fe but doesn’t eat well. She is a dangerous low weight. My weekend visits with Mom are overshadowed by this event. My brother told Mom O don’t care for her, I only come to PA to ale money and the FMLA is for me not for Mom. Mom depends on him. She said she’ll be carefully not to fall so she won’t have to call him. I already suffer from anxietySeeing Mom every weekend was like Christmas for both of us. It’s different now. Seeing Mom not eat scares me. I am trying to qualify for working from home and praying mom will come live with me.
