So, my stupid father's in the hospital now. Gr. Why can't my parents just stay healthy for once. He had a mild mini-stroke. But my foolish father didn't tell anyone for a week. and the only reason he went was because mom had noticed him staggering for about 2 days and made him go. He thought it would just go away. Pisses me off. and he doesn't have health insurance. and he needs physical therapy because he still can't seem to get his right side working quite right. Mom can't get him an appointment with whatever he needs (Soc. Security for disability, medicaid for insurance, the referred phys. therapist) until March 3rd.
My father is the only person at home with a license. He's the only one who makes any real money in the family. Mom and him and my brother (who still lives at home) cannot afford for him to be in the hospital for a month without insurance or any kind of income. It's ridiculous. It's unfair and impossible to manage. I don't know what they'll do.
If you're reading this, send out a prayer for them, please.
Thanks.
