Hi rainyday,

Your have a valid reason for your anxiety. Aren't parents troublesome? I didn't find out my mother had had a heart attack and surgery until a day later. And I live in the same city.

Your mother probably doesn't realize that her effort to not upset the children is upsetting you. Try to gently explain to her that you need to know what is going on. That not being informed is making you worry.

My mother was being secretive to try to protect the children, only we're all grown up, and it took her awhile to realize that it's okay to lean on us.

Take a deep breath, slow down those worries as best you can until you can have a talk with mom. You might offer to talk to her doctor or ask her if one of you brothers could.

I'm wishing you all the best.

Poet
