Indeed, my brain was giving me a lot of info. I can't stop thinking about it.

We got a call from Adult Protective Services. They asked if I could come help her, and initially I said no.

Then I talked to my husband about it, and he convinced me that we should help her. At first, he wanted to go as soon as possible, but the timing is terrible. We settled on going after I am done with a huge project at work.

So I think the boyfriend might be my husband. He is acting as her advocate, so he is aligned with her. He seems like a normal healthy guy. But he ends up driving is into the abyss.

I am afraid that intervening on my Mother's behalf will drain us and leave us in all kinds of danger.

But at first, I didn't even think this dream was about my mom. I thought it was all about working with 2 executive directors on this project at work.

My car accident was a major event in my life. I still deal with pain and mobility issues, and have not lost the weight I gained. On one hand, I worked my way out of a wheelchair, conceived and had a child, and outpaced my doctor's predictions in every phase of my recovery.

On the other hand, I am still carrying the weight, physically and figuratively.

Thanks so much for reading and sharing your insights.
