Left to fend for ourselves
My father is 54
My mother will be 55
My brother is 21
My father cannot lift over 30 lbs without dropping dead
My mother cannot lift herself from her bed
My father can only survive on an array of medications
My mother survives by the grace of Adonai and Radiation
My brother wants to **** himself
with a gun he says one day he will get a license
I beg him to stay with me, I try to talk some sense
My father can no longer do the things that he loves
My mother can no longer do most things in general
My brother's misery is congenital
I beg them to stay with me but can only do so much
God has turned his back on us
