My Back Has Been Hurting For A While Now. Started in 2018, But I wasn’t officially diagnosed with scoliosis until 2019. Yesterday, the doctors told me that my scoliosis has gotten worse, and that I need to not be lifting anything heavy or doing any strenuous work to make it worse. They also gave me some painkillers as well, and they referred me to place to get my back x-rayed. But really, this whole thing is reminding me how much I very strongly dislike my stepmother.
My dad and mom dated for a few years before they had me, but they broke up shortly after I was born because my mom found out that my dad had been sneaking out to see his ex-wife. His same ex-wife who poked holes in his condoms thinking he would not notice. A couple years after this, he met my stepmom, and they got married in 2009 and have been married ever since. My stepmom has had a very rough life, with a lot of stuff Relating to abuse that im not going to go into because it would probably break this forums rules to even discuss it. She has a very difficult time controlling her emotions, which is understandable why, but she frequently takes it out on someone who doesn’t deserve it. Back in June, I helped my dad wash his and her cars, but she got afraid I would scratch her car, and her and my dad got into a big fight. A few weeks ago, my dad asked if I could help him with his law. I told him I couldn’t do it, because my spine was in a lot of pain, and I did not want to make it worse. Stepmom then came into the room and yelled at me that if she ever saw him walking without my help again, she did not want to have me come over to visit anymore. I tried explaining to her that my back was in a lot of pain, but she yelled and said it didn’t matter because my dad is older than me. She herself has back issues, but she has a tendency to downplay other peoples issues because they aren’t as serious as hers.
My grandmother is currently having to walk with a cane because of some health issues, and my dad asked Me to volunteer to help her if she needs anything, which I agreed to, because I love my grandmother. My dad forgot to tell my stepmother that he already spoke to me about this, so my stepmother tried telling me about it, and when I told her I knew about my grandmother needing help, she yelled at me to not say I know if I haven’t volunteered yet, while my dad just stood there and did nothing.
I understand why some people might tell me to be understanding of her because of her issues in her past, but a lot of the same stuff she went through them also happened to my mother and Aunt, but neither my aunt or mother do any of the same stuff that stepmom does. My Mama and Aunt are not perfect, but they are much nicer people, despite what happened to them. This past weekend when my dad pick me up to go visit him, he mumbled under his breath that he did not even want to speak to her before he had to call her, and after the phone call, he mumbled again that he didn’t even want to go home.
I still love my dad, despite his actions several years ago, But the past 15 years have been A complete nightmare because of him marrying my stepmom, and her treatment of me, him, my grandmother (my dads mom), and even her own kids. It makes me sad to thinking about what life could’ve been if he had never just done what he did.
I know this is a long rant, but I really wanted to get this off my chest
