Wish me luck
Next week my Mom is having knee surgery and the following few weeks she will be staying with us. It’s not something I look forward to. I have been having a difficult time as is dealing with stress and my mom is excellent driving me up the fucking wall.
Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery.

Re: Wish me luck
Best wishes for your Mom and for you. Try to remember, like fiber through the alimentary canal, this too shall pass.
Re: Wish me luck
Good luck. Hope the operation and recovery go as well as possible.

Best of luck. And be sure to spend some time outside of the house to clam down and get your thoughts straight. If I can have my mother in law (the one they bases ALL the mil jokes on) with me for a couple of months, you can deal with your burden. This, too, will pass.

Re: Wish me luck
Good luck to the both of you. The suggestion by Big RR to take some time occasionally to de-compress is excellent. Do so.
Remember — even if your mother drives you to drink (or worse), she's still your mother. And once she's gone, you don't get another one. So enjoy her company while she's still around. The time will come when all you'll have are your memories of her. Wouldn't it be better that they were good ones?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
Re: Wish me luck
The good news:
My mom has been on much better behavior than usual.
The surgery went well
The bad news:
Due to an infection she had after surgery years ago the bone around the hardware in her leg was crumbling meaning the hardware as well as a large chunk of bone had to be removed and replaced with cadaver bone and epoxy rendering her non-weight bearing and greatly extending her recovery time (we’d be lucky to get her out by the end of the year)
My wife is definitely sick and my have COVID making everything that much more complicated with follow up appointments etc..

Re: Wish me luck
Hope it all gets resolved for you mate, fingers crossed for your missus.

Re: Wish me luck
Here’s to hoping that she gets good news from the Dr. next Tuesday.

Re: Wish me luck
You're doing the right thing. You're being a good son. You're suffering for it. Life ain't fair.
I bet next Tuesday seems like a long way to go. Good luck to all of you.

Re: Wish me luck
Even if it is good news next Tuesday it will still be some time until I can get my mom out of the house

Re: Wish me luck
Hang in there. Like Joe, based on our minimal knowledge of the situation, I think you are doing the right thing. Plus, maybe some good stories or not so fond memories to laugh over one day?
Re: Wish me luck
It went well for far longer than expected

Hang in there CP; hopefully there will be good news on Tuesday.

Good luck, CP. I know it is far from easy.

Re: Wish me luck
To look at it another way she’s feeling well enough to pry into other peoples business.

Right now my mom is speaking loudly on speakerphone in our dining room.
