What disabilities do you have? You said it is not a life threatening one. Well, I guess it is not, since you are away from home in college.
I have a wicked grin on my face right now. You know why? Because I was thinking of this: Put your cell phone on voice-mail mode for all incoming calls. Then your voice message is something like this: I am sorry I cannot take your call right now, but I will call you back as soon as I can. And for you, Mom, yes, I am fine thank you. My heart and lungs are still pumping blood and oxygen diligently to my brain so I can study and still have fun now and then. [Or something to that effect]
I think after a while she will get the message (pun intended)
Friends who want to contact you can send text messages instead.
Some mothers do what she does regardless of their children being disabled ... mothers are mothers ... LOL
One time my dad picked me up at a friend's birthday party, 30 minutes after he dropped me off there! ... and I was already bloody 15!! LOL
Mothers ... bless their loving hearts!
