My mother thought I had died when I had spinal meningitis. Not sure why. Guess she emotional prepared herself for the event of me dying, by concluding that I had actually died. I had to tell her from the time I learned to talk, that I was not dead. I didn't even know what death was. She was emotionally distant and even terrified of me. She kept telling me I was a ghost, and I would argue.
Dad made her quit telling me I was dead, by yelling at her, and threatening to beat her up. She finally conceded that 'maybe' I was not dead, but she said "you will be someday". She was just nutso. This is right around the same time our dog was killed. Just when I was figuring out what 'death' was. And yet she frantically tried to save my life when I was choking. I don't understand how she thought I was already dead. It makes no sense.
(stay tuned, the story gets more graphic)
