This is so sensitive, and I don't want to say anything to upset you, or make myself a target for your understandable anger at you and your mothers circumstances.
I sympathise with your and your mothers situation.

Sartre’s own clarification of his most mid-quoted writing:
"Hell is other people" has always been misunderstood. It has been thought that what I meant by that was that our relations with other people are always poisoned, that they are invariably hellish relations. But what I really mean is something totally different. I mean that if relations with someone else are twisted, vitiated, then that other person can only be hell. Why? Because … when we think about ourselves, when we try to know ourselves … we use the knowledge of us which other people already have. We judge ourselves with the means other people have and have given us for judging ourselves.

Why not Theland?
My mums dying, why do you not wish to really say what you believe? You believe that unbelievers in the Christian faith will be tortured forever in some kind of eternal torture chamber. Why dont you just be honest and say so? Maybe you dont believe this after all?
