So dad got really angry and drunk again then had a fight with mom. Lots of banging involved on the floors and on the walls. I think he fell down and Mom's calling an ambulance. I don't want to open the door and find out. This is one of those times where staying completely out of the way keeps me safe. If my younger brother comes in, he'll tell me more. I'm keeping an eye out the window in case there is an ambulance called.

That must have been really scary.

So after talking with my younger brother, I learned what happened.

So my dad got angry over upcoming stressful work this week and drink himself into one of his usual fits. Mom opened a door which hit him in the back of the head.

He's calmed down, but not by much and rather than get into an argument over whether or not mom did that on purpose, he's decided to sleep outside in the jeep.

I hope you, your mom, and your bro are safe. I hope your father gets well (in every aspect).

It is no fun at all living with violence.
