Why do I let her get to me? Yes I should be glad she can get out and do things and I am glad deep down.
Today she went to the Farmer's Market with my mom and me and I revealed to her that I am gluten free and she got all indignant and was like well is there anything you can eat here? We were at a booth that had pastries. I said no they all have flour and walked away.
We then went to eat after the Market and at at IHOP and I was looking at the menu and had pretty much decided what I was going to order and she said well we picked a bad place to come there isn't anything Jan can eat since it all has flour. I said there is a lot of things I can eat I am going to have this and told her what she was going to eat. She then said in a real snotty voice well is this something your doctor told you to do or what? I said yes and they are doing some tests also. I also mentioned that I am feeling better since I cut out the gluten and also losing weight. I then kind of dropped it and by then was sorry I mentioned anything anyway. She had to find out eventually but I was angry at her reaction. I had hoped she would be supportive but she wasn't and it hurt. I should have known better though because when she found out I was having Gastric Bypass surgery she wasn't supportive then either. Now she is always pushing food in my face telling me to eat she doesn't think I eat enough and it is kind of funny because before my surgery I was eating too much. I just can't win for losing.
Sorry for the ranting and rambling I just don't know what to do. I guess I should mention Grandma just turned 86 and I think she has some dementia setting in. She gets confused very easily and her brother has alzheimers and I can't be positive but I think she could have it also.
