Me, too. I have talked to one other person, a friend who I was surprised to learn had a mother with a lot of similar issues to mine. But it's nice to know I'm not the only one with a mother with issues. (and not just "my mom is a PITA" issues, which I think everyone has from time to time.)

Good luck bmc - you're not alone and ultimately you'll know what the right thing is for you to do.
