My mom has aphasia and it's stripped her of her artistic abilities, ability to speak properly and do other daily functions. So I take care of her and it wretches my heart.
Shit man. You win this thread. Though winning is a really fucked up way to look at it.
My heart goes out to you man.
Thanks I guess hehe...The situation only worsened by me not having a steady job because I have to be home to take care of her. This is only compounded by me growing up with my grandfather deteriorating with Alzheimers.
Glad I inspired a hehe at least. that was my main point.
Its a sad world we live in when being there for family and doing whats right, leaves one in an awful financial situation. I see it alot, believe it or not.
For what its worth, you've earned my respect.

I recently had to come to terms with the fact that my parents are going to get a divorce. As a result, I've been struggling with a lot of my work, as I;m distraught about what the implications of this will be. Sometimes I just want to crawl into bed and do nothing, because that's all it ever feels like I'm going to accomplish in life. This definitely doesn't help when I'm trying to finish my college applications. I figure whether or not I get accepted to one of the colleges I like is going to determine my mood for a long period of time. It's really the only thing I have going for me right now. Oh and I just found out my mom has to get surgery that's going to leave her crippled for the next few weeks.
God dammit, now I'm depressed again.
And while I'm butting in to people's lives, I'm sorry to see you feel so depressed. I hope that rather than the end of something special, it becomes the start of better lives for both of your parents.
And maybe they will treat you better, thats what happened to me after my parents divorced.
