So Saturday morning at 4:00am i get a call from my sister. She is at Toledo Hospital (they live near Toledo)and is just in hysterics and i'm having trouble understanding what is wrong. As it turns out, her mom (my stepmom of 31 years) had a massive stroke and was unresponsive in the hospital. So i make the drive up to Toledo to see what happened and when i get there i find out that she is in a coma and has definate brain damage. Then, to my shock, i find out that my dad had a heart attack when the docs told him that she had brain damage. So at that point i have my father and step mother in the hospital, my sister is out of her mind, my poor grandma is also out of her mind and my brother is on the highway driving from Ft. Campbell Kentucky out of his mind.

Then today, when i'm at work they told me that she was drawn out of her coma to measure the extent of the damage, and they say that she can breathe on her own but that is it...she is brain dead. So my dad and her 3 siblings made the decision to take her off life support (they had to anyways because her living will stated that) So i'm severely worried about my dad's health now, mentally and physically.

As far as my stepmom goes, its been a rough 31 years between her and I. She used to physically abuse me and my older sister when we were kids. She would beat us with belts, sticks, spatula's, wooden spoons, hair brushes etc. I hated myself and even tried to kill myself 2 times just to make sure she couldn't hurt us anymore. As soon as i was old enough to know better, i left to go live with my mom. For 13 years i never contacted her or my dad and i hated both of them. About 10-11 years ago, i decided that i had to face my demons for my own sanity so i went to confront them both. Lets just say that during that time, she was a changed woman, and i felt that she truly felt bad over the things that she did to us. I told her i forgave her but i don't think that i really ever have. She and my wife are good friends and she loves my kids to death.

So i'm very upset today but i don't know if i'm upset because of what has happened to her or if i'm upset that my dad is in bad shape. I feel guilty that i don't know.

Its a fukked up feeling right now

 
thanks bro's...my dad is only 55 so its not like he's real old. He should have a lot of life left.
my dad is only 52 so i feel you on that.

while reading this i was hoping you were somehow going to turn it into a joke like a lot people do on here with bad news like that but the punchline never came //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
