I just don't understand

Some background. My dad passed away 2 years ago. Since then my dh has gone above and beyond the call for my mom. Checks in with her everyday, takes her shopping, to the doctors, fixed things or put new things together for her. Treats her better than he treats his own mom.

Last night mom calls me to tell me that dh has said some horrible things to her the other day. I'm really shocked by what she tells me, as dh just wouldn't say it. I tell her that he is sitting right in front of me, let me ask him. She tells me that all he's going to do is deny it or say she misunderstood. I ask him anyway and he turns white. I knew by the look on his face that he wouldn't even think about saying this to her. There was no talking to her. She's convinced that he said it. I started to cry and she says to me "Oh so now I'm the big b****." WTH??

I've been up all night thinking about what could have brought this on and what if anything I can do to patch this up.

I am sure others will respond..but I recall hearing somewhere that a sudden change in personality like you are describing in your mom could be the sign of something neurological...perhaps you should speak to her doctor

I agree, you need to get her to a dr asap. She may have had a little stroke or something to that effect. Good luck!

Good idea, she was just at the doctor's yesterday afternoon. I think I'll give him a call.

I was going to say the same thing. My DH's grandma did this as well. Sending good thoughts and prayers for all of you.
