This is the email my dad sent me about mom... she needs to be put away.
"On Thursday around 7PM, she was going to fix dinner for Mason and there was a loaf of bread jamming the freezer door. She began slamming it and throwing food items around the kitchen, I asked if I could help and she continued screaming and said that she hoped she broke the freezer beyond repair. She then started in on me for not buying her a freezer. As i bent over to fix the shelf, she grabbed the lid of the coffee maker out of the top of the dishwasher and threw it at me. She reached in the dishwasher and I thought she was going to start throwing more stuff, so I ran over and grabbed her by the back of her neck, which I should not have done, and she started slapping at me and said if I touched her again she'd call the police. Mason was in the bedroom and heard the entire episode. She told me that she was going to stab me in my sleep. She has slept upstairs since Friday and is not talking to me. This is not the first time she has gone off the rails, as you know. I don't know how to deal with her. She said she was going to leave and to live with her mother, which is fine with me. As you are aware, she has had bouts of depression and screaming fits for over 25 years. I'm sure part of her problem is all of the drugs she is taking.
Love
Dad"
