Wow....I am so sorry for her behavior towards you! How extremely rude!
I do need to ask Where does your son stand in all this? How sad you don't get to see your grandchildren.
Unfortunately, I do not have a very close relationship with my mother ( nor does my brother) but I would never be so disrespectful to her by calling her names and swearing.
My children and my husband also treat her with respect because she is my mother.
