Maternal Bastardy
Spoke to mother today - apparently, whatever combination of genetics and training it is that causes a person to realize that other people can generally look after themselves, she doesn't have it. I hadn't spoken to her in over two weeks, so obviously I was either dead or grievously wounded. She had my dad call every hospital in Kansas City last night. "Do you know there are forty hospitals in Kansas City?" she says. I didn't, but I do now.
Anyway, apparently she was so convinced that I was deceased that she gave away my cat. I fully realize that leaving the cat at my mother's house was, in essence, giving up all rights to the cat, including custody and visitation, but damn. That's cold.
