Drop it, life it too short. Trust me. Had a sister in vegetative state. Regreted not getting along with her better (her attitude not mine). She died in Nov. after 12 years. Brother left 5 yrs after her accident and we have not heard or seen him since, absolutely no clue why. Mother & I did intervention with older sister April 15, have not heard from her since. She refuses to talk. My mom feels like she lost 3 children. People get worked up over the least little thing and let it eat away at them and it's not worth it. My mother has always held back on expressing her self and has decided now she's 70 and it does not seem to make a different how she feels or what she thinks, they are not going to change, so she's going to express her self and not hold back. We are entitled to make mistakes. Just say "Oh well, I tried, I guess you know who not to call next time for medical advice!" Just chalk it up to old age. What did you get her anyway? Smell might have brought back some bad childhood memories. Sounds like something with coal tar in it. My mother will insist on giving the money back too, that's just dignity an independence stepping in and there's nothing wrong with that. Stop and think how minor this issue is. You'll be able to look back and laugh. PS. I've been to 3 funerals in the last week of friends and lost 4 family members from Nov. to March. Not worth it.
