Right now, she's in bed, in the same clothes she's worn for the last 4 days. We've been having record heat, up in the 90's. Need I go into details?

Not to me! See my above post. I hear you. I'm sorry that she fails to appreciate you. That's even worse than totally clinging and saying "you're all I have in the world." Or alternating between the two. and whatever is wrong with her daughter? Is the mom just an unpleasant woman to begin with?
