My parents are no longer allowed in my home, on Doctor's orders. When they come to visit they stay in a hotel - of course it is the only one in town that my mother considers worthy of them. As to her reputation, she was quite a joke and very sincerely disliked by my father's professional contacts. My husband, who worked in a much lower position in the same institution, but who was very well liked and who knew "where all the bodies were buried" had it on good authority that my father was left out of consideration for the top job because of her. As for family, my father's family detests her. Since my illness and because both parents are in their 80's now and the dynamic has changed, they need me to love them and I can receive love from them as I never could before, wholeheartedly and without censure. -- Spirit World
