My Mum does this thing where I'll ask her a question. She answers it and then proceeds to keep me there for 10 minutes while she talks about the entire backstory. I love her, but sometimes I just want to walk away

Mines 86 and decided she now knows more about solar energy than her son....then she decided that the same applied to car chargers...my dad just peered over his book, looked at me and giggled

My mum's last coherent sentence was "I thought there would be sausages"

She said it with a little laughter in her voice and made us and the doctor talking to her laugh.

My Mum was a complete daftie with a big heart and gorgeous laugh. I miss her everyday

She used to do this thing when you walked into her house she would talk to you as if you were already in the middle of a conversation, it was so confusing.

My children now think I’m a daftie and they’re probably right but we have a lot of fun and laughter as well as some very confusing conversations about tech and iPhones

So much like my old mum bless her. I'd say... Can you get to the point... She'd say... I'm just filling you in all the details... Then she'd spin off at a tangent for 5 minutes... Then back on track... She could talk that's for sure.

I would give anything to be able to sit in the evening sun with my mum, drinking tea and listening to the blackbird singing.

It was one of my most favourite times of the day.

It's hard though. I get really frustrated with my mum sometimes and know I should treasure the time I've got left with her, but at the same time it's too emotionally heavy to constantly be thinking this moment could be something I'll look back on.

I don't know if that makes sense. Does it make sense?

Mum : I’ve won a competition

Me : that’s great, what did you have to do?

Mum : nothing just received an email saying I’ve won £10k

Me : please tell me you haven’t responded…. you can’t win anything, if you’ve not entered anything !

Mum : oh….. so how do they know where I live

Let’s say a very stern conversation followed on fraud…. she is wiser now but I still get called to check most email messages. So lesson learnt and thankfully not the hard way

What I'll say is that it's not essential to like your parents. Some parents are not the sort to provide you with heart warming memories for the future. Some are, of course. Anyway, you do/think what you think is right/appropriate.

^^^Timber, I don't know how old your mum is, but she may have the beginnings of a cognitive issue. In retrospect, my Dad's dementia has been symptomatic for a LOT longer than we realised. Early stage dementia has some weird and seemingly unrelated signs and symptoms, like a dislike of new things/loss of routine etc. My Dad started getting abnormally anxious if he came to our house overnight, which is something he'd always done. He started getting up at 3am and driving home.

My Mum was batshit anyway...

I remember one time I went round and she was talking about 'Keith next door'

She said - 'oooh I think I need to keep away from Keith Next door...and proceeded to tell me that he was telling her about his cock ring, she said 'seems a bit perverted'

I went round another time and there was a flashlight on the floor....

I said 'what's that Mum' she said it was a cat toy she thought she ordered but it's a bit shit because it doesn't rattle, only buzz....um no, that's no cat toy Mum turns out it was a parcel that she had taken in for 'Keith next door' and she never checked the package

Then she made me order him a new one because she couldn't bring herself to wrap it back up.

Well, poor Keith next door was labelled all manner of reprobate

Then; she was trying to organise her funeral and found a place online that were selling 'Bogof Coffins' Well why do you need two Mum there is only one of you! Her and 'Val, the other side' were going to go halves on it

She had two cats, both called Molly because 'why waste time calling two separate names'

Lawd I miss that lady, absolute legend

Absolutely

Some people step away from their parents for their own well being, and that’s completely ok.

Some people have amazing relationships with their parents and love spending time with them/wish they could spend more

Both are totally valid ways of being

She adored her cats, she would have mugs, coasters and canvasess with their faces on

She had a heart of gold my Mum, very disjointed childhood but I knew she loved me, we had an amazing relationship as adults and She doted on my boys and that meant everything.

My mum is 98, and has short term memory issues. I take my dog to see her and she asked the same questions over and over again within five minutes of her previously asking. So I started writing the answers down...

How old is the dog, I held up a card saying one year old... she pulled a face

Is it a she or he? I held up a card saying she's a female. again.

Do the other pups look like her? I held up a card saying... She stopped me and said okay funny arse, wheres your bloody crystal ball. Oh no card for that I see.

There aren't any. Last time we spoke she shouted at me and told me it was pointless even trying to have a conversation because my accent has changed and "I can't understand a word you're saying"

I wonder how she watches television because not everyone on the box has an East end accent so I can only assume that the only programme and films she watches are eastenders and Lock Stock. Anything else would be pointless right? Somehow I don't believe that to be the case.

My mum was good fun growing up, my dad used to chase her around the house trying to give her a kiss.

She was an excellent cook as well.

I miss her, and even those has been gone 10 years now I still sometimes think I'll just phone mum and tell her something, and then I remember that I can't.

That's her. I thought I'd extend the olive branch when rona hit and we had no idea if we were gonna see the other end of it alive. Just one more rejection off her to add to all the others she's provided me with since I fell out her fanny.

My mum was absolutely nuts.

I remember one time 30 or so teenagers came to the house because they wanted to give my brother a good beating. My mum opened the door, had a nice conversation with them about how lovely they all were, then pretended to get my brother but actually grabbed the baseball bat and went back outside trying to knock them all out. I can still hear the screams.

I have some very batty memories of conversations with her. She was a knob, but someone you could never forget.

My mum is quite possibly the funniest person I have ever known, kind hearted and generous, having spent her early years as both mum and dad (when “dad”fucked off).

These days she loves a bit of fishing, so I have had to learn this skill, and I take her out to the lakes when the weather allows, it ends up being a weird version of Paul & Bob gone fishing, with mum taking on Bobs role (falling down the banks, getting over excited when the float goes down and general riparian mayhem). I wouldn’t swap those days for any other. Blessed am I.

"My mum is quite possibly the funniest person I have ever known, kind hearted and generous, having spent her early years as both mum and dad (when “dad”fucked off).

These days she loves a bit of fishing, so I have had to learn this skill, and I take her out to the lakes when the weather allows, it ends up being a weird version of Paul & Bob gone fishing, with mum taking on Bobs role (falling down the banks, getting over excited when the float goes down and general riparian mayhem). I wouldn’t swap those days for any other. Blessed am I. "

fantastic story..your mum sounds great
