Your story reminds me of another...

My mom was in a nursing home.

My mother was the type of person who, once you got on her bad side, it was all over for you.

I was walking down the hall to visit my mother.

An old Italian woman in a wheelchair was parked in the hallway, close to my mom's room.

I said hello to the woman as I walked by.

She grabbed my sleeve and stopped me.

She said in broken English..."Your mama...she no like me".
