My family SUCKS!! I am so angry that I don't know where to start...
Dad is dying. We have all come to grips with that. He lives with my half-sister Terry and her husband Monte. For the privlige of a tiny room and two meals cooked for him, Dad pays them $800/month. he has done this since 12/05. Considering they live in a two bedroom apartment in West Milton, Terry and Monter benefit greatly from this. Now, Dad is going down the tubes quickly. He has heart failure that was aggravated by open heart surgery in December. It was suppossed to help but medicine is funny like that.
Anyways, in the past few weeks he has gotten weaker and weaker. he has no energy, his feet are so swollen he can barely walk and when he does he falls. Now, Terry and Monte decided that Dad wouldn't get a wheelchair or he get 'lazy.' WTF?? A LAZY 80 year old man.... Their solution, get him a walker with wheels! YEP, that will help.
Now, during the before mentioned heart surgery, I was informed that I was no longer his healthcare POA. Nope, now all decisions will be made by my sister Terry. The bitch drinks from the time she wakes up until she passes out but I digress...
The point is I can no longer make any decisions. Anything I mention to Terry she blows off or ignores. I have been taking care of people my entire adult life. I just want to kick her and ask "WHY??" Why don't you listen to me?
Tonight I find out that Dad is drooling and barely awake. Can I rush out and see him. NO!!! I have to call in the morning and they will see if I can come over.
Last week, I recieved an e-mail informing me that my family *all my family* would be unable to attend my wedding. Why you ask?? Because they do not approve of my "Pagan lifestyle." I am evil and they will not support me. Yep, I am the evil one. I have lived a life in service to the human community. It doesn't matter. Nothing but the blood of Christ can save me. God doesn't count good deeds you see..
