“AITA for ignoring my injured mom after she cut me out of her will?”
The writer, a 50-year-old woman, has been shouldering the responsibility of caring for her injured mother, who has a history of accidents and illnesses. Despite her own busy life and sacrifices, her mother has cut her out of her will, leaving everything to her younger brother. The writer feels hurt and perplexed by this decision, especially since her brother has never been reliable in helping with their mother’s needs.
When their mother recently had another accident, the writer declined to help, feeling that she had done enough and that it was time for her brother to step up. The writer’s decision has been met with criticism from family members, leaving her feeling guilty and uncertain.
However, with the support of her spouse and a supportive aunt (her mother’s sister), the writer has come to realize that she has been prioritizing her mother’s needs over her own for too long. She has decided to set boundaries and allow her brother and other family members to take on more responsibility for their mother’s care. The writer acknowledges that her decision may be seen as harsh, but feels that it is necessary for her own well-being and to recognize her own worth beyond her role as a caregiver.
