I'm home, I'm not sure what I'm doing here but anyway. About two hours ago my mom came to get me and said my dad was acting weird. He couldn't remember a thing, couldn't think and couldn't talk. Very weird, apparently it had been going on for 45 minutes already and she hadn't told anyone. She only came to get me after she had called the doctor. When the doctor came (an idiot btw), my mom told me to call my sis. She turned up a few minutes later with An and Youri. My dad was talking a bit more by that time but was acting very erraticly. All of a sudden I could see his gaze moving oddly, not quite settling on something, as if he wasn't seeing anything. He started making an odd noise and then stiffened up. He probably had an epilepsy attack then. He stiffened up, started drooling, turned completely blue etc. Very freaky.
I think everyone but An and the doctor freaked by then. The doctor said "it's an epilepsy seizure" and only moved when my mom shouted at him to DO SOMETHING. He ran off to get some valium in his car (without giving us any instructions) and let us to handle it. My sister decided the doc was an idiot and called the ambulance. They turned up a few minutes later when my dad had settled down a bit and was snoring loudly. My mom went with my dad in the ambulance, my sister and Youri followed after while An and I gathered some stuff for my dad and locked up the house (paid the fracking doctor) before following too.
He's stable now, I haven't seen him but my mom and sister managed to terrorise the nurse into letting them go inside with my dad. Apparently he is lucid again, he talks a bit more but not easily. He is a bit more responsive but the freaky thing is that he remembers nothing. My sister says he didn't even know who she was and he kept staring at my mom. Theory is that he had a brain haemorrhage which cause the epilepsy attack. They have to do tests on him but of course our local hospital sucks big time and the specialist wasn't even there. My sister, Youri and I returned home to get some more stuff and I staid here. I'm not sure if I want to be here. I'm not sure if I want to be at the hospital either. At least I have some distractions here, but it's not like my mind will be able to settle on anything else right now.
Yotz. I just don't know.

Hope everything is okay.

Finding something to distract yourself with is prob good right at this moment, but allow yourself some quiet time to think about it ok?
