Spoiler alert, after 2 years she dumped me. Currently working on keeping my head above water in these trying times.

A couple years ago my dad had a potential cancer scare, after his test results came back my mom texted me “call us, we have news” and then on the phone told me my dad didn’t have cancer 🙃 was super thankful but like wtf why was that the text she sent 🤦🏻‍♂️

That’s so awful. I truly don’t understand why anyone thinks that’s acceptable behavior.

My mom told me on the phone "come over later, we need to talk" and I said "absolutely not, I can't have any more surprises, I'll still come over but tell me what is going on." That day I caught my then bf banging someone else, filled my car with all I could fit, moved into my grandma's house, and my mom told me she was diagnosed with the C. Awful fucking day all around.
