I remember my father saying one time that perhaps I might get repaid for the trouble I put my parents through. OK, yes, that's an asshole thing today, but the man from a different time and not long for the world so it'll not argue with him.
I don't believe in such cosmic balance sheets to be sure but I suppose there is a poetic justice here. I realize I have been vague and to exactly what happened but there's a reason for that.
His mom.... I can't be with her - ever - but she was so distraught yesterday. She shouldn't have been driving. On her behalf I apologize for anyone Wives's stuck in the aftermath on I-5 south near the OR-WA border. She's OK, some whiplash and bruising from seat belts and air bags.... she always did follow too close.
I called the insurance co's bluff and am keeping my boy where he needs to be. I'll appeal the final denial if and when it comes and I'll be bringing a lawyer to make sure fucking Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas does the right goddamned thing.
Can you believe this shit? My 14 year old attempted suicide by asphyxiation on Monday and on Friday they're saying he doesn't need to be in the hospital - because he is ashamed to verbalize his feelings of self-harm and that particular checkbox can't be checked.
I'm so sorry you're living with this, my friend. I can't imagine the welter of feelings you must be experiencing.
