Sometimes the past continues to be painful for what feels like forever. She is your mom, and she probably really does love you. If you have to see her, you don't have to trust her right away, just love her. She's had a hard past whether or not it was her fault. There's no way to tell whether or not she will leave... just don't get too attatched I guess, in your mind you can pretend she really is. If she doesn't leave, it will be so much easier to trsut her after this. I know my advice is kind of quirky, but I hope it's resourceful.
