What do you think?
Just waiting for my arsehole to fall out...
My dad was in a car accident on Monday morning (see previous post) and is in Port Shepstone hospital. Mum doesn’t drive and I’m more worried about her being on her own dealing with all of this. Her landline was out of order yesterday which made it even worse for her. She felt so alone and isolated because she couldn't get to my dad. Thankfully my dad's CT scan came back clear but they wanted to keep him because of his high blood pressure and his head injury. Waiting to hear the outcome of the blood tests the paramedics took.
Secondly, I get a call yesterday from my Boerewors to say he’s been suspended pending an investigation and he has no idea what its all about. His job is on the line and he has no clue what its all about. Labour lawyers here we come!
Thirdly, Megan is desperately unhappy at school and is acting out. The after-care teacher asked her what is wrong and she said she's bored. I had to chat with her last night to try and find out whats up with her. She's battling to fit, I think. Because they don't understand she's always played with boys (Megan is a die-hard Tomboy) and finds it difficult to fit in with the girls. They don't know her that well yet to know these things and she's finding it difficult to make friends and find her space at school. Its making her very unhappy. She said she's too shy to make new friends.
Our home was flooded over the weekend again with all the rains, luckily a good friend, Percy, came over and fitted a circuit and bouy attached to a pump that kicks in and drains water when the level gets to a certain point. Thank you Percy!
However, we're living in what looks like a squatter camp. My lapa is a mess, the grass and garden is so saturated in rain water that I have to put my Wellies on and squelch through the mud to get to where the cars are parked. Its a nightmare.
I have not had a good few days…and a person can only handle so much.
Asking for positive karma and prayers (thats all)
Sorry I haven't been reading or comment on your blogs.

My Dad was in a Car Accident
At 8pm last night my Mum gets a call from the Paramedics to say my dad has been in a car accident.
They took him to Port Shepston Hospital for a head injury, cracked ribs and his knee has been torn open. My mum doens't drive but even so, not having a second car, she had to get someone to take her to the hospital to see my dad.
By the time she got there, my dad was in the ER. She said when she got there she got such a fright when she saw all the blood. You bleed pretty bad with a head injury, so she wasn't prepared for all the blood. She says his face looks terrible - all swollen and grazed. Mum went with him to x-ray to make sure he has no fractures. Everything looks clear but they need to keep him for observation with his head injury.
He is in a normal ward for now and mum is going to see him again today after the doctor has been around to re-asses his situation. She needs to take his eye-glasses because my dad's blind as a bat without them and they were completely smashed in the accident. Mum is now stuck on her own with no car and unable to drive! I wish I could be there for her - she is 700km away.
My dad says he was pulling out of a petrol station after filling up, when a mini-bus hit his car on the side. It doesn't matter who's fault it was because the Paramedics took blood on the scene and my dad was well-over the blood alcohol limit. I'm so glad he's okay but I'm angry that he was drinking and driving - again. Perhaps, this will be a wake up call for him...
The car is a complete write-off and because of him being over the alcohol limit, the insurance won't cover him anyway. So, he'll have to fork out money to buy a new car - another wake up call.
I know I sound harsh, but my dad has had a drinking problem for years and he has never admitted to it. He could've had hurt or killed someone else in the other vehicle and then it would've been a lot more serious. We're talking manslaughter then. Luckily the little girl that was in the other car only sustained minor injuries and is at the same hospital as my dad is (so we can keep an eye on her situation too).
What a way to start a Monday morning! When your phone rings at 5:45am - you know something is wrong and immediately you go all cold.
Will keep you posted.
