Josie and her sister

So I am doing my mage playthrough for the millionth time. But I never really listened to the conversations during the Wicked Hearts plot. I did this time and listened to her sister beg her sister to spend time with her, and listening to Josie tell her not to share childhood memories, I feel they have a great relationship.

Her sister seems to look up to her so much and I find it extremely sweet.

My abuser is in the hospital

My biological mother was extremely abusive towards me throughout my life. Treated me like one of the dogs. I was just diagnosed with traumatic arthritis in my jaw, hands, feet and back because of what she's done. I also had brain cancer (slow growing, popped up on a scan when I was a kid and she never took me in for a follow up so later on in my life it turned into full blown cancer that is slowly killing me), and untreated epilepsy that has caused brain damage for how long I went without help.

When I came out as trans, she absolutely made sure my life was hell. Made me sleep outside in below zero temperatures.

She's a raging racist, homophobe, transphobe and xenophobic person. She defends what Hitler did (not kidding).

I cut contact with her after she openly humiliated me in a Denny's by outing my deadname not only to my partner (he knows it but respects not acknowledging it) and the servers. I changed my number, moved and cut complete contact. My dad called and told me she was in the hospital and was asking for me. I refuse to go see her. He tried to guilt me into seeing her but I can't. Part of me feels bad for her, but another part of me just hates the ever-living shit out of her.

She makes my life hell. I don't know why she's in the hospital and I really can't be bothered to care. I can't, for my mental health and physical. If I ask, I open that door again. I'm getting married soon, I have an actual family now that cares and loves me. And now she's contacting my friends and telling them how 'evil' I am for not coming to see her.

I can't toss that because my abuser might be dying. I feel guilty in a way, but I also know what'll happen if I give in.

I hate feeling these conflicted emotions because of her.

I feel like I am being punished because I wanted to live a better life without being constantly hurt by someone.
