On Monday the 4th June 2007, while holidaying in the UK with my Father, my Mother was struck by a van while crossing the road.
Mum spent 88 days in various UK hospitals before finally being brought home back to Australia on the 30th August 2007.
She is currently in The John Whittle Nursing Facility with brain damage
I have set up this thread to keep you all updated on her condition and her improvements and hopefully one day, Mum will be able to read it.

Oh Amy. I'm so saddened to know that a certain few undesirables happened to just make things worse for your Dad.
God bless all of you.

I can understand how your Dad feels Amy, I m of that age where it maddens me and I speak up, but, we are getting to that age where it can be dangerous for us to speak up.

The ratbag kid gangs in dads street are still desperately trying to get in his house.
The neighbour spotted 10 of them on his roof the other day and yelled at them and called the cops. Then they were spotted trying to climb the electricity poles in the street to cut the power to his house.
Then on Friday, dads alarm security rang to say his back door was broken open. The got into the kitchen and stole the loose change on the counter then bolted cause the alarm went off.
But its known they then stand back and watch to see how long security takes to get to the house so they know how long theyve got the next time they break in.
Im furious but dad just doesnt seem fazed.
My sister went over to the house to help fix the door and she said the place is just a mess. The yard is like a jungle and there were just heaps of different pill containers all over the coffee table.
She tried to talk to him about it but he was not interested. While my sister and her hubby were fixing his door, he was getting ready to go out to dinner with his new "friend".

Ah geez, shame on the parents. I don't know why some folks bother having kids when they can't be bothered raising them.
Such a shame that the rest of us have to put up with the consequences of their deplorable parenting and empathy.

So our 8th Christmas is coming since Mums accident.
Everything is still the same except that Dad now has a girl friend.
I have no issue with this. My sister has met her and says she is nice.
There have been a few things though that have angered my sister and I.
My nephew and his wife invited my sister, my brother in law, my niece, her two kids and my dad around for a family dinner ( a very rare thing for my family), but dad couldnt go as he was going round to his gf's for dinner instead.
My dad forgot my birthday completely but then informs me about buying his gf a new tv for her bday
Dad said he couldnt ring my daughter on her birthday as he was having dinner with his gf.
He still only rings me when he has won something on rbay and needs me to pay for it for him and he never ever asks about my kids. Yet i am now hearing all about the things he does with his gf.
Am i having a whinge? Yes, i am. Have no where else i can whinge ๐
On Christmas day my nephew has invited everyone to his place for a bbq breakfast. Dad is going and he is taking his gf.

Another year coming to an end.
So we will be heading into the 8th year since Mums accident.
Will this year be the end of it?
Dad seems happier now that he has a new friend. My sister is getting more and more depressed. Me, well i just go with the flow.
Im happy for my Dad and listen uncomfortably to him telling me about the dinners and things he is going to, and i try and cheer my sister up.
Please let this year be the end
