Hello Scapedaughter: Well... my thought would be to, perhaps, have suggested, to your mother, that you & she meet for lunch or coffee, at some neutral location. There the two of you could have had the needed discussion & you could have given her the massager. In extending the invitation, you could have emphasized the need to "process" what took place & to try to find some way of lessening the likelihood it will happen again.
