The past few weeks have been pretty crappy in my book. I guess every so often we need to expell our guts and put things into some sort of semblance. Life is full of bumpy roads and no matter what we tell ourselves, we need to vent it out. Gotta remove the sick creeping around us and start anew. So, here i am expelling my guts to the unseen online world. Gotta do what ya gotta do, right? Between work, my father being sick, accident a few days ago...hmmm...what else?! Yeah. It's been one of those months. Not the right thread, but if anyone has a moment, please throw my dad a prayer as he just got a diagnosis for cancer. At his age, sure, is common, but sucks nonetheless. The conversation i had little bit ago really threw me off. Medication can cause side effects, yes. I've known my father obviously for my lifetime, but when i heard he was being 'bothered', that made me stand back a sec. Now his health is declining, yes. I've (and family) known this for some time. But when he was shoved in bed by something not seen and he is hearing footsteps inside the house when nobody else is there, well, that throws up some flags. Pain medication can cause hallucinations sure, but my past history of being tormented by unseen things makes me think twice. Is it all pain med delusion or are there things circling my dad as the clock is running down? Mentally i am preparing for a battle as usual. That's what i do and i will not stand by while something is bothering my dad. With all the junk going on in my own life, this has taken center stage. He was never one to admit when things were going on in our past houses. Eventually he did. It's all overwhelming when you swim in the paranormal pool. Regardless of what people think or say, these things are around us. Only people who have experienced this or have lived with this understand. That is what this forum is for. Keep my dad in your thoughts as this plays out. Any thoughts in his direction will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading everyone. Steve (Selectric).
