So last week, my grandma (89 and on my mom's side) fell and broke her hip for the second time in three years. She was supposed to get surgery for it on Friday, but the doctor wouldn't let her because they said that she has a blood clot and her heart wouldn't react well with anesthetics and she might not wake up.
She lives in Beijing, along with my 2 aunts and my uncle went to take care of her. My mom can't go visit her until January because her company doesn't allow breaks until early January. The first day my mom heard about it, she was really quiet and stayed in her room all day. Over the course of the week, she got really moody. Like I would say something to her and she'd scream at me and a few minutes later she'd be really nice. Yesterday, she was just.. Normal? I really don't trust it. I know she's crying on the inside. I really don't know how to respond to her.. I've been really nice to my mom lately and so has my little brother but I don't think it's doing much good. I think that she knows that we know that she's sad, so she's trying to hide it. It's been affecting me too. Yesterday, my friends told me that I was a lot more outgoing and random than usual. It's because I've been trying to hide what's been going on inside my mind lately. I've just been thinking too much because I don't know what to do. What should I say to my mom? How do I keep myself from being overly-random? Ok, it's really long, but if you read the whole thing, you're awesome. Help, please? |

well firstly understand your moms emotions, your grandma might have been a big part of your moms life, and to see that she cannot do anything due to her work, holds her down so yeah she cries within. as a daughter understand your moms grief, though she may act without according like she'd scream at you then be nice, your mom may need space and time to think. your worried and so is your mom, maybe the best thing you can do is to be there for her when she needs you and tell her that your here for her when if you need someone to talk to or cry to. shedding a little tear may be good, especially if it helps crying some pain out. communication is important in everything, dont beat yourself down encourage your self and her, pray for your grandmas sake. keep your head strong.
