My heart is going so fast. Please tell me I did the right thing.

So my mother.... I don't even know what to say. I know I need to cut her out but apparently I have some sort of syndrome that makes me forgive my abusers? I know I can't because my babies health is on the line. My therapist helped my right this. Oh god I can't breathe. 29 years old and scared by my mother....

She sent this message two days ago.

"If I cant have that baby ill make sure you wont be able to at all lol. Well see who court believes a slut who got knocked up or a loving grandma."

*I waited till my appointment today to have help to respond. I feel like she's going to show up at my doorstep any second and she hasn't even read it.*

"I'm not going to let you think you are in charge of my life. You have had your way with my life for for too long and I will not stand for it any longer.

You have less say in my child's life than anyone. You will not be more than a grandmother, if I even allow that. You will not raise my child. You will not disregard my Other Half because you don't like him. I have been with him 8 years and I don't care if you dislike him or not. You will not think you can take my child and raise it for me.

Are you forgetting the years of abuse you put me through? Making me kneel on rice for hours? Bashing my head into a toilet and then giving me a swirly because I didn't clean it for the full 5 minutes? Locking the fridge and not allowing me to eat for days? Oh, right, I exaggerated all of it, and those who witnessed are liars.

This baby will have the most loving family I could ever hope for. Without you. I don't have to involve you in my pregnancy. I chose to because you seemed to have changed. Whether that was a ruse or not I don't care, you have one chance left. One.

Meaning one more petty comment about me, baby or him, one more calling my baby a mistake, one more threatening to push me down the stairs, one more insisting you'll take my baby from me, one more threat, and I will never speak to you again, and I will press charges.

You will never know your grandchilds gender, name, date of birth, or anything about them.

I have documentation of the threats, so you can threaten to take me to court all you want, but I assure you, the moment the courts see "Im going to push you down the stairs so youll lose that abomination," I'm positive I'll be granted, at the very least, a restraining order.

So kindly have a good day, and I'll see you at the baby shower."

God I feel like I need to post anonymous because people think you need to respect your mother beyond all else....

I'm sorry if this offends anyone.
