I have to get this out of my head and this is the first and best place I could think of. If you don't want to hear about my personal issues, by all means click out of this post right now. I fully understand. There's enough crap going on with out listening to my *****ing.
My sister met up with an old flame of hers from 30 years ago. Long story short, they hit it off again, bought a house together and set as a happy family. He's a long haul truck driver so he was only home when he was passing through the area, and that would generally be only a night or two.
Things were great, my sister was happy, and everything was rosy. Then it changed. When he was home, my niece couldn't have her friends over. My nephews infant daughter made too much noise when they visited. My sister couldn't even go out to her small workshop( she makes soaps) for too long with out getting yelled at.
About six weeks ago, he had a massive heart attack on the road and needed quadruple bypass surgery. This was around 2000 miles from here. My sister flew out there and brought him home once he was well enough. Then the trouble really started. I just found out that he has since hit her a few times and threatened to " make her disappear". I was ready to go over and give him a good thumping but my wife wouldn't let me get myself in trouble. We called the police, but they said that because of his recent surgery, if my sister wanted rid of him, she would have to be the one to leave! After talking to the police about their history( he said she was abusing him-he's over six foot and she's about five foot), and the police listening to him rant on, they thought it best to find him a half way house where he can be looked after by a staff.
So now I will be changing all the locks and beefing up the doors and windows with extra locks and chains. He has her very scared. I'm working on getting my sister moved closer to me. We have a place for her but she can't move in until end of May. The next two months will be tense to say the least. The police have her name flagged as a priority incase she calls ( if he shows up at the house). I have her calling her lawyer on tuesday. The for sale sign is also going up.
If you've been with me this long, thanks for letting me unload. It's hard to be the head of the family, when everyone calls on you to look after things. I want to go into the shop to unwind but I think I'm to distracted to do that even. It's a beautiful sunny day so perhaps I'll just go out for a walk. Thank you again friends. This helps clear my mind a little.
