*watches hair turn grey*
I'm starting to think that not being on Live Journal for almost a month was a bad BAD idea! Why? Because lately I've been more stressed than ever before in my life and I really need to vent.
Last week, Monday the 14th, my mother had an asthma attack and was rushed to the ememgency room. She was freaking out! Kicking and trying to speak all while they were trying to help her. And for 10 minutes... her heart stopped. Why? She had a stroke. Once they brought her back she was induced to a coma-like state so they could put a tube in her mouth and nose. One to help her breath the other to make sure she didn't throw up. And for 3 days she didn't speak or even open her eyes.
After the first 4 days, they were finally able to do a cat-scan on her (they couldn't before hand because of all the machines they had her on) and we were told about the stroke and that she suffers from some brain damage due to the lack of blood and oxygen that couldn't reach her brain. So, she lost parts of her memory. She doesn't remember her street address, phone number, people in her life that have past away, my brother being in Jail (thou now & then she does remember) or even how to read and write. She talks and acts like a 6 year old.
But we're told that with therapy for her mind and body, that she should be back to about 90% to what she was before.
Now if that's not stressful enough, my stepdad is being a real ass!! It all started last Saturday when he claims that a my mom's purse he put away in their guest room had money in it. $200 to be exact. And that it's missing. Now, I don't have keys to their apartment neither did my younger sister Vanessa at the time. The people who slept in that room was my aunt and 2nd brother, Jason. Jason knows about the money and is confused by when the purse was even put in the room. My aunt hasn't been told about it.
And then Vanessa moved back home to help out. Clean, cook, and take my sister to school. I'm helping find out when bills need to be paid, taking care of the boxer dogs my mom owns, and helping Vanessa when I can. My stepdad claims she isn't doing her part! That's total bull shit!! The girl got up at 7am to make dinner for them before she went to work at 9am. She's done luandry and clean up the messes he and my little sister make! Then accuses us of trying to take his money just because we asked for the last 4 digits of his SS# for a bill that was $80!! We needed it just for the bills because some companies ask for it as verification! Then he accuses me of throwing away the bills and asking for credit cards to spend money!!!! UUUURRHHHHAAAA!!!! Why the fuck would I do that?!?! Yeah, that's right asshole! I'm throwing away bills because I don't want my sister to be able to take a fucking bath!! And I didn't ask for credit cards! I asked if they had credit card bills and how they paid them!!
The man doesn't even speak english or even understand most of it! I was asking my mom these question to see if she could remember and answer them! But no. He hears, "credit cards" "money" and his name and thinks we want his money! PLEASE GIVE ME A BREAK!! I haven't taken money from my mom since I was 16 and even then it was just $5 to buy snacks at school!! I have no way of getting inside their apartment and I bet he's starting to think either me or my sister took that $200!!
He knows if my mom were in her right state of mind... he wouldn't be able to say anything like this to us! He's being an ungrateful bastard who trusts no one! And I'm starting to think that he's only going to see my mom everyday so he doesn't look like a bad son to his parents. I say this because his older brother's wife had cancer and he was a loving husband and stood by her. I don't think my stepdad really loves my mom because she didn't really love him. My brothers are pissed off at him too for treating is like this.
June wanted to talk to him about it but hasn't called and Jason pissed off because my stepdad doesn't want my mom to have a care taker after she leaves rehab. Only because I bet he thinks his stuff is gonna get stolen. My older sister jessica's getting fed up with him too. She told Vanessa that my stepdad told my mother about the missing money. Vanessa than cursed him out and asked why'd he tell her that (we didn't want mommy to think about it and possibly worry about it) and he said he never told Jessica that. OOOOOOHHHH!!! SO now Jessica's a liar?!?! RAWR!! I miss I could tell him off... but I don't speak fluant spanish... >>
Anyway, if anyone read all this... *hands you a box of cookies* Thanks for reading. I just really needed to get that off my chest. Nick's mad about it too, but he can't do anything either. But I've been venting to him and it's helped too. ^^
