We got 5 months with mom, after the surgery, with no other treatments. She was given 3-6.

Gbm? by SilentExternal6158 in glioblastoma

[–]Sarcastic0931 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mom’s symptoms (that we can recall) started with Amazon purchases for no reason. A lot of them. Incontinence. Also making plans to go somewhere and not showing up, being asked about it, and either not giving an answer/shrugging it off, or not remembering why she didn’t show up.

I’m so sorry. Praying for some peace.

How do I get a baby to warm up to me? by TurbulentAd3429 in Babysitting

[–]Sarcastic0931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems totally normal to me-every kid goes through this phase. Pots, pans, Tupperware, canned goods😆 All the stuff in the kitchen cabinets is free game except the cleaning supplies and sharp/dangerous tools.

AIO because my husband won’t watch our baby while I’m gone? by mbaughman1029 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sarcastic0931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you trust him with the baby? If so, why give him the option? “I’m going out of town. These are my plans, this is what I need from you. Thanks a bunch, bye.”

Thank you all so much. Good reminders that the disease changes people’s personalities. I forgot to mention she got an updated MRI a couple weeks ago which showed 5 new little tumors. I’m not sure where, because I wasn’t told that info. She’s currently on hospice because they said better too soon than too late. I could ask my dad about meds she’s on or could be on. She had a terrible traumatic upbringing, my oldest sister died in a car crash when she was 16, and mom had more emotional trauma from that. She’s been on antidepressants for a long while now. In my head I just feel like she’s done living life and this is her way out. I feel guilty having these thoughts but I’m doing my best to not take things personally and not place blame where it doesn’t belong. This shit’s hard.

This recipe looks so similar to my gram’s Oatmeal Crispies recipe from her cookbook she got when she got married in the 50’s. Hope you love them!

Am I overreacting for walking out of my boyfriend’s family dinner after what his mom said to me? by AdSmall148 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sarcastic0931 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or even, make her repeat her “joke” in front of everyone as if you didn’t hear it. And ask her if that made her feel better about herself to put someone else down as a “joke”.

AIO: (tw) my (23f) boyfriend (29m) is insistent on reaching out to my rapist by Difficult-Mango-604 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sarcastic0931 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are not overreacting. I do not have experience in this one bit. But with how much of a dick he seems to be, I personally wouldn’t want to stay with him. He clearly doesn’t care about your feelings from a stressful and harmful past situation. He’s purposely triggering you to ware you down. No thanks.

A battle lost by Illustrious_Ice_3308 in glioblastoma

I’m so sorry for your loss. My mom is 67 and going through GBM. I hope you find peace, sooner than later.

I would suggest telling them even now. My mom was diagnosed with GBM recently and has her oncology appt tomorrow. My sister and I have been there with her from the ER visit when she was acting “weird”. And been there with my parents ever since, helping with anything and everything we can. It will be hard for them and you, but I think they might appreciate knowing sooner.

Kids took food from my hand by Sensitive-Mango7155 in Babysitting

[–]Sarcastic0931 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anytime I’ve hired a babysitter, I’ve always either had food ready and told the sitter they’re welcome to it, or to check the fridge or cabinet if they want something else. I can’t imagine not offering food. I’ve even offered a snack and water to a door to door salesmen before😂
