Dad: It's not going to be a good day...
Me: Why?
Dad: The first words your mother said to me were:"I'm angry with you!"
Me: Why is she angry?
Dad: I asked her why and she said: "If you don't know why, I'm not going to tell you!"
Me: Laughing- Better you than me Dad!
Dad: Thanks kid- your time will come!
******************************************
Scene: Giving Mom her after breakfast pills
Mom: My mouth is a mess.
Me: Do you have a lesion from your Lichen Planus?
Mom: I think so.
Me: Are you using the dental paste the doctor gave you?
Mom: It's not really a paste. But there is the other medicine you told me I could take, but I don't like it either. I need a steroid.
Me: The last time we went into the doctors, they wouldn't give you a steroid for that.
Mom: I need that steroid that starts with the letter "P." I think...
Me: We can talk to Dr. P when we see her next week, but now you should use the topical medicine they gave you.
Mom: Why can't I remember what that steroid is? I need to take it.
Me: Use the topical stuff and then we can ask about the steroid.
Mom: They probably won't give me a steroid because I refuse to take them. They make me feel crazy. I don't like that feeling.
Me: Okay. Mom, if you don't use the topical medicine the way its prescribed it won't get better.
Mom: I KNOW THAT.

Scene: Drinking coffee with Mom in her living room. Quiet and then:
Mom: Blueberries.
Me: What?
Mom: You got me eating blueberries with my cereal and I like it.
Me: Good.
Mom: I've never seen them so cheap.
Me: When?
Mom: The blueberries.
Me: What?
Mom: I've never seen them so cheap.
Me: I'm not following...
Mom: When you bought blueberries they were cheap.
Me: Okay.
Mom: How did you get them so cheap?
Me: I don't know...
Mom: Don't you understand what I'm talking about?? (upset)
Me: No, I guess not... maybe I need more coffee?
Mom: Well I thought I could make myself more clear.
