Planned Intervention

Standard

A bit ago I wrote about my dad’s infection in his leg and how he’s believing for faith healing and refuses to see a doctor for it.

Well, my siblings, mom, and I talked yesterday. We talked about how worried we are about him and his health, and how we’re worried about losing him. So, we have staged an intervention for tomorrow. I am not looking forward to it. I hate confrontation. I don’t want to confront him on this. However, something needs to give, because I’m terrified of losing him. So, I’ll be a part of this intervention if it give more weight to the event. I assume the more people who come together the more seriously he’ll take it.

Here’s hoping he doesn’t just blow us off.

  1. Good luck. Things like this are always hard, but it will show how much you care about what is happening to him. Keep Strong, you are a brave person and will get through this. Hopefully to him too. God Bless! You have been heard!

  2. Good luck! That is a really tough spot to be in, but I’m proud of you for standing in the spot in spite of that. The fact that it’s over a spiritual matter in some ways makes it even more tricky.

    Good for you, for doing what you can to do right by your Dad. I wish I had done more for mine.

  3. I’ve been following you and I really hope you realize how amazing you are. You’re fighting off your own issues with binging and purging *and* you still think about your Dad. It’s quite remarkable.

    Best of luck. Let me know if you need anything.
