Roller Coaster

Every day is different and the same.  Mom goes back and forth between loving me and appreciating what I do and in her words....getting as close to hating me without actually hating me and firing me from being her POA.  According to her on those bad days....I have kicked her out of her house, shamed her, I'm spending her money and I took her dog away from her.  She keeps telling me how she has contacted an ombudsman to help her with finding someone trustworthy to look out for her.  Oy.
This is so much harder than anything else I have ever dealt with.  And while I know it is never my mom saying these things, but the disease, it doesn't make it any easier to listen to.  And you can't even defend yourself against this.  In the middle of the rant, she actually believes what she is saying.
