Dear Mother


I went to my sister's engagement party last night and because my parents dont want to even acknowledge my wedding or marriege to my partner, they treat me like their dirty little secret, unfortunately for them I am not the kind of person to keep my mouth shut, I am not that door mat or scape goat anymore.

You see every time I talk about my wedding, the subject gets changed and my mother keeps telling me how sick she is. (I know she is not dying and that if she would stop being such a child, take the damn meds the doctor has perscribed she will get well, but the fact is she doesnt want to because she knows that she will not get the attention that she is getting now)

anyways, my mother completely ignored me last, she doesnt make the effort to phone me, she doesnt make the effort to see me and I am tired of running after her. So we have not said a word to each other for a month now. This whole situation has hurt me more than I thought it ever would. We were never close but when I decided to come out the closet, she became so ashamed of me, so disgusted with me and each time I try and confront her with it she tells me to stop being nasty to her because she is sick!

I think my parents, particularly my mother would rather be at my funeral that at my wedding.

I have designed a funeral invitation for my own funeral:

YOU ARE INVITED TO ATTEND A MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR THE DECEASED:

Who loved unconditionally, her love of animals, children and defending the defenseless.

Funeral, Memorial and Burial arrangements:

All Rachel’s organs have been donated to the Organ Donor foundation so that they may be put to good use if they havent been pickled.
her last wish was not to have a burial in the Jewish cemetery where all the other bigots and hypocrites lie, but to be cremated and her ashes scattered to the earth.

The ceremony: please watch this space for details as to time, place etc

She also wants everyone to celebrate her life, to dance, sing and listen to music and to have as much tequila’s as they can stomach, for this is the life she led.

would my mother receive this invitation?
