Re: respect thy elder

I believe all the advice given here are good, but you can't do this alone especially with your health. Try to reach out to your mother’s family for help. Try to get professional help, there are people who provide free services for people in need, physically, mentally and financially. Your determination shows that you will get over this obstacle, but until then continue to dedicate most of your time with positive influences such as friends, family, books, healthy food, and plenty of fresh air. Yes, respect your elders to the best of your ability as long as it doesn’t interfere with your enjoyment of life. May the Lord bless your efforts.

Re: respect thy elder

Thought id give an update things are doing much better, the docs think after all this time it might just be a tapeworm (gross but could be worse), my dads still being a flake hes actually doing worse he just looks physically run down anymore (when i actually see him). I'm going to step in and say something once I get my feet on the ground with a job and a place to stay. My dads losing the house. I have plenty of people who have already offered me a place to stay so I'm not too concerned about it. I'm just tired of having to rely on the kindness of friends if i can help it. I just got back my act scores i scored a 25, that is more than enough to get me into college and i should have money from my moms side of the family if need be. My grandparents recently passed and my moms share is coming to me, but the account will be run via my moms sister so there is no possible way for my dad to get a hold of it : ). I'm trying to talk my aunt out of some of the money so i can put it into my svx. Because i could use a treat and my svx sure as heck could . Well thanks for being there guys i just thought id post back when things weren't at rock bottom.

Re: respect thy elder

Move out. Work part time and look for an apt that you can share rent with a few friends while you finish school. Take control of your life and cast off those who are dragging you down.

Re: respect thy elder

that is good, College is fun. Just get you education (I can't recall how many times I have been told that in my life). You can't do much for them so worry about schooling.

Besides my dad wasnt the best of guys b4 the drugs. I didnt use to have a problem with it but i guess crack and coke arent as friendly as the drug i knew as a child ( my mom was a pot smoker). Appearently its more an adiction i just dnt get why he had to spend my ss on not food and not schoool and not car or other teenage things when he is a charge nurse at a pretty big hosp here in WV. The man can have w/e bad habits make him happy as long as they dnt effect me but hes not following the rules of live and let live. Hes "stolen" over 35,000 dollars i could of had for school.
I have talked to friends but its senior year everyone cares too much for them and their futures right now. I have also talked to my youth group that i go to whenever i get a chance. I'm sure they could help if push came to shove but at this point they are just a kind ear for me to vent. I do beleive i will be tremendously better once i am cured, im fairly self motivated and love to push my self after being sick for a year the last thing i want to do is continue this sedintary circus of human decay (sound like a new heavy metal band lol) I dont know there is more venting for you subaru ppl. Oh yeah and dads started taking parts from my svx to keep his going gah. " to every down there is an up" at this point i should hit the lotto jackpot lol
I wish you the best!! I thought I had problems dealing with the effects of 'aging' on GOOD parents!
I had a 'sheltered' life compared to yours!
If you decide to go to Potomac State College in Keyser, I have a spare room!
It's 20 miles away, but has it's own set of stairs. A garage and a lot of garage 'toys'. It's also is about 4 miles from Old Toms garage.
God Bless you!

I am sorry I didn't see this post months ago.

That's good news to hear and thanks for sharing Tubbs.

Tomorrow is a whole new year. You just make sure it's a good year for you. Go on and do it. Do it for your Mom, just be sure you get control of your future.
