The Whine thread.

Anyway, since you said your son pointed out that your animated avatar could've been better, I presume his health is improving?

Oh yeah, he's pretty much back to normal, and stir-crazy. It's also amazing how quickly the rash is fading.

It's like he's ever made an animated avatar himself, mind you. The kid's a born critic. Must run in the family...

Bad day, this one, for me and - above all - for my wife. Her father had an ictus (the second), and we have spent the day between hospitals, TAC, preoccupations and fear.
Now - in the night - we have left him, and we are at our home.
But we worry.
He's a very old man, and...

[Distracted]

A stroke, is that what you mean? A blood clot or bleed in the brain?

I'm very sorry to hear that, Asso. That's what my father-in-law died of as well, but he was bedbound and paralyzed for years from the first one before the second one took him. I hope your wife's father is more fortunate.

[Asso]

Thanks, Dis, very much.
My father died because of a stroke, but - luckily - he wasn’t bedbound and paralyzed like your father-in-law. We – my wife an I – hope.

[Alelou]

So sorry, Asso. Hope he recovers well.

My father-in-law also died of a stroke, but it was sudden and complete.

[Dinah]

I'm so sorry to hear about your father-in-law, Asso. I hope things go well for him. You and your family are in my thoughts.

[TPoptarts]

Sorry to hear that I hope he recovers. My grandpa had a stroke like a while ago. And his left side got paralized but it got better with physical therapy. But still not the way it used to be.

Whine: my parents keep pestering me about their stupid trip!!! Like my mother calls me every day now several times a day to tell me the very same stuff every time about how they wannna see me and how they're disappointed that I keep telling them to cancel and how they have to pay cancellation fees etc etc, trying to tell me how maybe I *can* arrange something and whatever and like I've been telling them since before they even ordered their tickets that IT'S JUST NOT A GOOD TIME but of course they didn't listen to me and went ahead anyway and now they keep pestering me about it all the time ALL THE TIME!!!!! And I can't take it anymore I just want them to frelling stop somebody make them stop

And like also I had a bank account with some money but my dad was in charge of the bank account, and now I really need that money it's my money, and I found out that I only have like less than half the money I used to have there, I used to have like over $5,000 now there's barely $2,000 and I was like WTF, and THEN my mother tells me that they've been dumping thousands of dollars of MY money on my health insurance and I'm like "huh WTF, I don't even have health insurance" and she goes like "you do HERE". And I go like "but I don't even live there what do I need a frelling health insurance THERE for!!" and she's like "for when you come back". GAH like first of all I'M NOT GOING BACK and they frelling know it I told them like a million times, and second of all like even if I did wanna go back they could start the frelling health insurance whenever I got there and what the frell is wrong with them, they've been dumping MY money in the trash because of their stupid fantasy of me going back to them and now I really need my money and they dumped it, and like also they don't even wanna give me what's left!!! It's just not fair

I haven't seen health insurance that only works in one place. Tell them you need your insurance card, and see if they have dental for you too! Get the name of the insurance company and call them. If it's a policy for an adult who's not in school, they ought to be dealing with you, not your parents.

[Asso]

Thanks to everyone.
I'm overliver from a long surveillance marathon. 12 hours. State of psychomotor unrest. Mental confusion. Flutter. Intence bradycardia (pace-maker?). The next hours will be clarificatory, I hope.

Yeah well it's expired now anyway. I'm just FUMING pissed that they dumped MY money like that because it's my money and it should be my decision and they had no right. And I still need my money and I can't get it

[Alelou]

Why can't you? Do you know what bank it is in? Is it not in your name?

[TPoptarts]

My dad's in charge of it and my mother doesn't wanna give me the money

[CX]

Set up your own account in another bank.

[TPoptarts]

I did but I need my money
