Trust, and hurt.
All my life people abused me, by using me for the abilities I can perform, and how much I loved to help. From family, and friends. But now nobody remembers all the good things I did. Today I have trust issues in making friends, because of this. I don't trust people, and am afraid of being used, and hurt.
Recently, my mother had a stroke. After she was released to go home, and receive home care, my brother took her to his house, leaving her house empty. I have no way of getting to my brother's house, and the one time I did, I felt so unwelcome, it really hurt. Nobody had told me she had been released from the hospital, and I had to search to find her. My brother and sister won't offer to come get me, so I can see my mother before she dies... My brother and sister don't remember that I built my brother's first house, or installed a beautiful fence around my sister's new house, and made many repairs on her cars. They only remember me, when I had drug issues 16 years ago, and can't let it go. I tried for the past 6 yrs, to re-unit with them, but the cold shoulder effect was always there. I thought families stick together. Even after my failed marriage, nobody cared how hurt I was...
Why am I doing all the work to re-unit, with a family that doesn't want me around? (except mom). Is it fair to take my mother to an area I can't get to because I don't have the transportation, when the same care could happen at her paid for, and beautiful house that is empty? How can siblings be so cruel? Why are they like this, and how can I stop hurting?
