I Hate My Mother - The Funeral

At The Funeral My youngest sister had been taking care of mom for the last year of her life. Dementia is not a fun disease and I can never thank her enough for the hard work and effort she put into that care. I’m supposing no one ever thought I would be interested in attending the service.

I Hate My Mother - October 19th, 2015

October 19th, 2015 That Monday morning, I was on my way to my cardiac doctor for another exam. The aortic valve problem I mention the doctor picked up while I was in the ER that night was going bad again. I had it replaced in May 2001, and was told it would last “a lifetime.” If a “lifetime” was... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Metamorphosis and Forgiveness

Metamorphosis and Forgiveness In the days and weeks that followed my breakthrough in May 1986, I learned a lot about myself. I was thirty-three and recovering from a traumatic brain injury.

I Hate My Mother - The Last Psychiatrist

The Last Psychiatrist When I got home from that appointment late in the afternoon, my wife told me “A new doctor called. Call him back tomorrow.” I knew that was going to happen, but I didn’t think it would be that fast. From the last time I had spoken with the state doctor, it was clear they wanted...

I Hate My Mother - Days of Agony

Days of Agony Because I cover so much of this next section in my Audible book, “My Long Road Home,” I’m going to condense the next three years for this story to fit in this chapter. I will have to add one more to explain what happened next and how I finally found my answer. There were a lot of... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Faint Of Heart

Faint Of Heart Over the next week, all I could think about was my failure to protect myself. All I had to do was fall down, but I never moved. Why? My mind replayed the video of Ralph using me as a punching bag twenty times a day, and I couldn’t come up with a single reason I stood there. My wife... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Aftermath - Part B

The next time I woke up, I heard my wife calling my name. It took a few moments to open my eyes and realize she was talking to a doctor standing next to me. He was explaining my injuries to her. The phrase that caught my attention was when he told her, “We don’t think at this point we will need to... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Aftermath

Aftermath When everything was back under control, the doctor who had set the entire incident off finally found the courage to crawl out from under the desk. He was still shaking from the adrenaline rush of the attack when someone asked him to check me out. The spinal fluid was still actively... Sign in to see full entry.
