my uncle "needs" to go to the hospital for his foot again. (it's got an infection of some sort, and he does pretty much nothing to take care of it. all he does is go to doctors [getting rides from us mostly because he can't keep a vehicle to save his life which may be a literal statement this time], insist he'll take their expensive anti-infection medications & soak his foot regularly, buy the medications with whatever of my grandma's social security money is left over for the month and then "forget" to take the pills & "forget" to soak the foot, only to wonder why it still bothers him & need more appointments/hospital visits)
and my mom just kinda blew him off. she did tell him last time "if you don't start taking care of it i am not dropping everything and spending all day in the ER again" so it's not like he wasn't warned, but still...it's her brother and she's to the point where he's just not worth the time any more.
hits kinda close to home today because my brother is up from florida this weekend for my cousin's high school graduation (note that he didn't come up for my graduation), which is at least part of the reason my uncle got blown off.
mom just wanted to rant at me, and i just wanted to rant somewhere public.
