Nursing my mother in law 2
I got a notification on my phone and I checked it was a text from my sister in-law who had called twice but I refused to pick up
” you this thing I don’t even know where my brother brought from, you see this nons*nse you are doing pray nothing should happen to my mother and any day I hear her complain about you again I personally come and beat you up. She sent
I wasn’t angry Sha but I needed to fix her a cup of vawulence so I replied.
My text: Goodday sister nneka, I think you sent that text to the wrong contact but if it truly me u sent it to here’s my humble reply.
You should first beat up your self for leaving your duty as a daughter for another person to carry out, I am not angryooo but I’m so disappointed that a whole family can go insane like people who has never visited a primary school, as you are nne I know if letter A is as big as dangote truck you won’t still recognize it that’s why you can’t read to know things about your mother’s illness and how to manage it, all you know is to insult someone that’s trying to help you do what you can’t do see your mouth like native flute, certified illiterate come and beat me if I don’t disfigure that your head that looks like burial fufu wey them mold in a hurry.
After sending the text I relaxed and waited for more cause I knew hell will open gate for heat to come out.
My husband rushed home in anger and shouted at me, I didn’t say anything to him until he said I wanted to kill his mother.
Me: you act as if you weren’t in the hospital to hear all the doctor said about your mum’s condition, you blindly support your family as if I am not part of you, at least read about diabetes and how to manage it, don’t just talk like an illiterate.
Hubby: oh so you are calling me an illiterate? U are saying I don’t know anything abi?
Me: I didn’t call u an illiterate Biko but if u like the words u can make it your name, unnecessary hatred has blinded your mum and siblings that something as common as this still looks like an issue. When mama came from the village she was peeing uncontrollably, before she will get to the toilet she had pee on herself,I wash those wrappers and mopped the floor without complain,I managed her health to the improved level it is now but non of you could say thank you rather support mama to do things that will worsen her situation, I have tried and I’m not doing again if she stays here then it should be your responsibilities to wash,cook, massage and give her the drugs, I am not doing anything for Mama again. I walked away leaving him and mama there.
