Dad has low self esteem
Mom gets mad at dad for having low self esteem
Dad drinks because mom is mad at him
Mom gets upset because dad drinks
Mom cuts herself
Mom "accedently" knocks an "old" wound, which is quite a bit deeper than the normal scratches.
Said wound gushes. Mom yells for help causing me to run up two flights of stairs from the basement
I panic for about five seconds trying to figure out what happened. Inner Jamie is running in circles.
Snap back to reality and grab a washcloth. Wonder how long she let the wound bleed before asking for help
Wound stoped bleeding by the time Jamie got there.
Wet paper towels (that just happened to be in Jamie's room)
Clean blood off of Liz's arm while glancing around room.
Think: wow, that's enough blood to feed a vampire
Put aniseptic band-aid on wound.
Liz speaks of how she talked to our dr. about Mike's drinking and that we need an intervention
Jamie keeps from asking if said dr knows about Liz's cutting
One headach and some invoicing and Jamie is now avoiding her family
No wonder Justin wants to join the military.
